Hi, my name is Maura! I'm a sophomore pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education at West Chester University. I volunteered at a daycare center for almost two years, working closely with small groups of children ages 1 to 4, helping with daily routines, play-based learning, and creating a nurturing environment. In addition, I volunteered for three summers at a camp, supporting children ages 4 to 14, which gave me experience in managing larger groups and planning engaging activities for a wider age range.

Selina C.
- 5 years paid experience

Hi there! I'm Selina, and I absolutely love spending time with kids! I'm a caring, sweet, and kind person, and babysitting brings me so much joy. I've had the pleasure of looking after my little cousins, and I even worked as a nanny for one of them from the time she was four months old until she turned three. I still get to watch her occasionally! I really enjoy being creative with kids and taking them out for fun adventures, whether it's a trip to the park or a trampoline park. There's nothing quite like seeing their faces light up with joy! I also worked in a school where the kids really warmed up to me, and I loved putting smiles on their faces. I help with potty training and teaching them their ABCs, and I always like to reward good behavior with little surprises. Christmas is my favorite time of year to give out big surprises! I also have experience with kids who have heart problems and disabilities, and I'm always ready to lend a helping hand.
