Sittercity helps State College families find the best child care providers

Hi! My name is Madison Cole and I am a rising senior at Penn state! I am currently staying here over the summer and working remotely with my internship! My goals in life are to become an event planner! I have had many years working with kids. Specifically I have worked with ages 3-8 closely and I have had a little bit of work with preteens and up! I have been a YMCA Camp counselor for 4 years in the past aswell as baby sitting in my area! I can help with homework, play time, food prep and laundry! I love kids because they are our future! It’s so important to make sure they feel cared and loved.

Hi, my name is Shameena and I’m currently a senior at Penn State University. I’m majoring in pre-med and I hope to become a pediatrician. I love reading romantic novels and watching rom-coms movies. I’m looking for part time either babysitting or being a nanny. I have one year experience with babysitting. It consisted of taking the kids to the bus stop in the morning and the occasional evening where the parents would go out for a bit. I was also a kindergarten teacher assistant in high school for a semester as well. Yet, I would say that I did babysit my three younger siblings when growing up. I know that most would say that it doesn’t fall under the category of babysitting, but as being the oldest I had to watch and sometimes feed my siblings when my parents were away for a few hours.

I am currently a teacher at a local preschool and have been teaching since 2022. I graduated from Penn State August 2023, with a bachelor’s in Psychology and Early Childhood Education credits. I am working on completing my ECE schooling. I love working with children because there’s nothing better than being able to teach and guide them into a healthy and positive development. I also enjoy teaching them new things about the world that strikes their creativity and imagination. I have all of my clearances such as mandated reporter, NSOR, child abuse, etc.

I am currently a rising junior at Penn State University, studying kinesiology with the end goal of being a pediatric occupational therapist. I truly love caring for kids of all ages and personalities! With 4 years of experience in child care, I feel I would be a great fit as a part-time sitter.

Hi there! My name is Angela, but I prefer Angie. I am 27 years old. I have an amazing 11-year-old brother that I practically raised myself. I am an Animal lover, I have a dog, 2 cats, a few fish, a rabbit, and a hamster! During the past three year I have had the pleasure at working at some of the centers around town. While I was there I worked with a variety of age groups ranging from (1.5-2.5yrs), (3-5) (Pre-K) as well as infants (2mo-18mo). I do have all of my clearances, check ups, back ground checks, trainings (such as first aid and CPR) as well as training early childhood development. I am passionate about watching children grow and explain and learn the world around them. It takes a village sometimes, so let's build that village and connect to see how we can help each-other's needs! I look forward to speaking with you! If you have questions feel free to ask, Thanks!

I am the oldest of 3 boys and I have watched my two younger brothers my entire life. Also, when I was in high school I would baby sit for my neighbor who had two younger kids. I really enjoy helping people out by watching their kids, when they are busy. I am a very trustworthy individual and very energetic. I am very caring and love to have fun.

Nurturing young minds and fostering their development is truly my passion. My three years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, has solidified my commitment to providing a safe and engaging environment. I am patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and always prioritize open communication with parents through verbal updates or their preferred method. I hold current First Aid Training and CPR Training, and my early childhood development coursework further enhances my ability to provide quality care. I am happy to assist with light housekeeping and swimming supervision. Ultimately, I aim to be more than just a caregiver; I want to be a positive influence in your children's lives, and I look forward to discussing how I can best support your family.
