Sara S., Child Care in Paoli, PA 19301 with 11 years of paid experience

I am a highly experienced specialist caregiver with a Master’s Degree in Education and a unique dual-expertise as a certified Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI) and a Reading Specialist. For nearly a decade, I worked in traditional school settings with students from K–2nd grade, including those with visual impairments, learning disabilities, and those on the autism spectrum. This background allows me to deeply support and connect with all types of learners through a lens of patience and specialized instruction. Beyond my teaching credentials, I have significant experience caring for infants and toddlers. I am fully competent with all early childhood needs, including diapering, strictly adhering to sleep schedules, and managing feeding routines. Now that I’ve transitioned to online teaching, I am excited to bring this combined skillset to your home to create a fun, supportive, and engaging environment. Whether we are practicing phonics or exploring creative play, my goal is to foster your child’s independence and confidence. For your peace of mind, all of my clearances (FBI, Child Abuse, and Criminal) are up-to-date and I am CPR certified. I am dedicated to providing a safe, enriching, and high-level experience for your little ones, ensuring they thrive while in my care.

We recently had Sara watch our two kids and couldn’t be more pleased. What stood out wasn’t just the reliable, attentive care - it was the extra thought she put in it. She brought with her books and games for the kids since we were from out of town. The kids were engaged, happy and were well looked after. We would recommend her to any family and will absolutely be booking her again if we visit Philly.

Hi my name is Dominique. I am a graduate of Penn's Graduate School of Education, with a Master's degree in Early Elementary Education. I currently am I teacher in the Philadelphia area so my availability is limited. Please reference my calendar. I have all my clearances. I have been CPR trained. I worked in my mother's daycare for five years. I have worked as an instructor at a summer program and have lots of teaching, so I am comfortable with larger groups of children and I am able to connect with each individual child. I am comfortable and experienced working with children of all ages but my preference is to work with children 13 and under.

Dominique was on time, reliable, and did an excellent job watching our two kids (including our very emotional 4-year-old) while we were at a nearby wedding. We would definitely work with her again if ever back in the area!

Hey everyone. I have a ton of experience love animals and children of all ages I do prefer to begin with younger children(infants, preschoolers and s hool aged children) it's fun however, with my patience, humor and common sense I can handle anything. So ready to take care of your children I took some time off due to a position ending and now I want to return. I miss my daily routine, reading, being outdoors, learning activities, going for walks, tummy time (if infant), games, puzzles and interactive play. I love to laugh have fun and mix it up with learning activities. I am reliable, have a clean background on file and cpr first aid certified, tdap, flu and I'm vacinated for covid. Please reach out if this interests you. Thanks for reading! Also, I have a reliable car..

Clara M., Child Care in Paoli, PA 19301 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a 26 year-old Registered Nurse (RN) in Pediatrics. I received my first BS in Psychology at Haverford College in 2022, and went back to school for an accelerated BS in Nursing at Villanova University in 2023-2024. I am currently working full-time in Pediatrics in the hospital. :) I have nearly 10 years of babysitting and nannying experience in both the private home-care and professional academic sectors, and have been so fortunate to amass an incredible circle of clients that have followed me through many years and much growth. I love this work and I feel incredibly excited and blessed to be able to expand my experience and passion into the healthcare sector. I am still working regularly for many of my long-time clients — and even with nursing my full-time job, I am still excited and motivated to continue my "home" jobs and enjoy a change of pace from the rigor of the hospital setting. While I am not currently able to accept any full-time or regular-recurring new clients, due to my full-time schedule at the hospital, I would be glad to chat regarding occasional babysitting needs and opportunities for date nights, weekends, holidays, etc. I am still open to taking clients on in this capacity, and would be glad to connect on this front!! :) (Please note: due to my years of experience and my RN licensure, I can assure you that I will provide a high tier of attentive, customized, educated care for your children of all ages and unique intricacies. As such, my starting rate at this time is now $28/hr. Please feel free to send me a message if you would like to discuss my scale for multiple children and inquire about options. Thank you so much for your understanding in advance).

Clara is wonderful! She’s always on time and very sweet. She’s great with our son and was really put to the test when he became stomach sick while under her care. She was quick to give us an update and remained calm and took such great care comforting him ❤️ We would definitely recommend her !

Kathleen C., Child Care in Paoli, PA 19301 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Kathleen and I am a kindergarten music teacher in the Norristown Area School District (as a PA certified teacher all clearances available upon request). I grew up in a large family of six kids and have always enjoyed working with children. During high school, I began camp counseling during the summers and professionally working with children. In college, I started babysitting for families with toddlers and elementary-aged children. When I graduated, I began teaching music, working with children grades 1-8. Now I currently work with kindergarten children aged 5-6. Outside of teaching music, I am a very active individual. I enjoy cooking, baking, reading, performing on voice and piano, exploring museums and new places, playing guitar, and sports. I recently received my black belt and have been training in martial arts for five years. I also enjoy playing volleyball and frisbee in recreational leagues with friends. As a sitter, I've always enjoyed providing the best experiences for families and their children. I am not the kind of sitter who is going to be content doing the bare minimum. I really genuinely love helping families and engaging and creating quality activities for children. Especially during the warmer months, I love taking children for time outside like walks to the park or playing soccer or tag in the yard. I've enjoyed building new lego creations, baking cookies, and drawing and painting. I also have no problem cleaning and doing house work, I actually enjoy it. However, I will always ask if it's okay though. I also have no problem making snacks and food for children. I've always treated each child and family as if they were my own and always make sure to deliver service with the utmost respect and care.

She takes great care of our girls and leaves our home in better shape than we left it.

Selena P., Child Care in Paoli, PA 19301 with 10 years of paid experience

I can be the solution to your problem! My name is Selena, I would like to describe myself as a very dedicated and reliable person. I am energetic, detail-oriented, organized and eager to accept the challenges of a responsible position. Most of my experience falls under the transportation/child care industry. I pride myself on my service skills and my ability to resolve difficult situations. I am self-confident with a positive attitude. I strive to give 100 percent effort in everything I do and follow through to completion. I’m motivated to keeping my client’s satisfied, it is evident in past experience. Working in the transportation/child care industry has taught me how to work under pressure and how to manage stress. I am a very honest person. I believe the best way for me to show my skills is through the quality of my work. That’s why if given a chance to be your personal sitter I would be able to show you better than I can tell you. My passion in life is to attend and care for people of "ALL AGES" to the best of my ability. My personal philosophy is “Speak what you seek until you see what you’ve said” which means that I speak what I desire into existence, a positive mindset equals positive results.

Amirah was awesome! She was able to step in for us last minute when we needed a sitter in a bind, and we could not be happier with her services. Amirah is very professional, and our kids loved her. We can’t wait to have her babysit again for us.
