Sittercity helps McKnight families find the best child care providers

With eight years of experience working and volunteering in multiple settings for children and those with varying needs, I have garnered an appreciation for helping others learn and grow. I hold credits it early childhood education and have multiple certifications including CPR/First-Aid. All clearances can be provided immediately. I love to do art projects, make reading enjoyable, and spend time outside whenever possible. I'm willing to help out with some housework, errands, and transportation if requested. Working with children has always been my passion! If interested please feel free to message at anytime and I am likely to get back within a few hours.

I come from a big family growing up with 7 other siblings in the household. I'm the oldest daughter of 5 other siblings. Being the oldest daughter came with a lot of responsibilities. Growing up throughout the years I spent those periods being the surrogate parent to my younger siblings, always being on call for my mother 24/7/365. Watching over kids started when I would do little babysitting jobs for my mothers friends, while they worked or went out, and that's when I knew I was good with kids, and loved being around them. I am First Aid and CPR certified, I also took 2 Childhood Development classes in 10th and 11th grade. Life with children can be unpredictable and I know I'm able to adapt to the situations they face. I recently had a baby girl in March 2018. I’m hoping to find a job that allows me to bring my child with me. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hi!! My name is Helena and I am a 19 year old student at the University of Pittsburgh studying biomedical sciences. I love kids and have 2 younger siblings that I have been missing so much since moving to Pittsburgh! I am looking for babysitting opportunities to fill up my schedule and help some families with their childcare needs. I am able to cook, clean, play with kids, take care of pets and anything else you may need.

Being a nanny is not just a job for me but a career. I love children and enjoy watching them learn new things that I've taught them such as colors, shapes, numbers, identity of animals, sign language and all sorts of things that help with their developmental growth. I enjoy being a kid with the kids, but I'm also very mature, responsible, nurturing and I have a positive attitude. I know how to encourage a child (children) I make them laugh because laughter is the best medicine. I help them to find what their talents are. Reading is important and I like to read in Character voices which makes reading more interesting for kids. Children are a gift to their parents for them while the parents are away from the home. After taking a break from being a nanny due to the lack of jobs available in New Jersey, I took a job in the cooperate world and I now know that being a nanny is my calling and what I desire too do more than anything else. if given the chance; I won't disappoint you. I work well with parents and their expectations and I listen and take instructions well. I'm looking to start a new job in Mid October or first week in November of 2021. Looking forward to meeting with you either Via Zoom, in Person or FaceTime. Thank you for reading and for your interest in me.

Hello! My name is Almira. I am 22 years old and I’m an upcoming thesis architecture student at Virginia Tech.

Hi, I am a Point Park student majoring in Screenwriting & Entrepreneurship. I have my car downtown, so travel is no issue. I will babysit, housesit, petsit, and or clean whatever needs to be cleaned. I am a straight A student, with multiple leadership positions on campus. I work with kids often as I am a camp counselor every summer for at risk, intellectually gifted children, I’ve been a babysitter for years, and (as I’m a former wrestler) I run wrestling clinics for elementary and middle school aged children. I love debate, TV shows, food, wrestling, and public speaking. I founded the happiness/kindness club at my high school, so the people or things you love are safe with me. P.S. I have a 3 hour minimum for jobs, as driving across town doesn't become worth it for less time.

I am a psychology major at Duquesne University with a 3.5 gpa. I grew up with little siblings. I have a 7 year old brother and he is my main source of experience. Taking care of him the past 7 years and watching him grow up has been the biggest joy of my life. I love being around children and would love to be able to do it more!
