With two years of hands-on babysitting experience, I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages, and each family has taught me something new. From soothing infants to guiding curious toddlers, I’ve learned how to be patient, adaptable, and dependable while creating a safe and loving environment where kids feel happy and protected. I consider myself a nurturing and supportive caregiver who always puts a child’s well-being first. Beyond childcare, I also have experience with cooking, light cleaning, and helping maintain an organized home so your day runs more smoothly. I’m also comfortable handling pick-ups and drop-offs, which allows me to support your family’s routine with ease and reliability. Babysitting isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I love building real connections with children, encouraging their growth, and offering a calm, positive presence. I would be excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and caring personality into your home.

I been a preschool teacher since December of 2023 I love kids because of the joy, curiosity and honesty they bring into the world. Being around them reminds me to see life with patience and kindness and I genuinely enjoy supporting their growth as they learn, explore, and become themselves. Caring for children feels meaningful because they deserve to feel safe, understood and encouraged. I take pride in being someone they can trust. Helping kids feel confident and cared for isn’t just a responsibility to me it’s something that comes naturally from my heart. I also had a rough child hood growing up so since I was younger I always had a passion to care for kids and treat them the way I wish I could’ve been treated as a kid.

Hello! My name is Courtney Lathrop and I am 18 years old. Almost 10 years ago my mother had three younger children and ever since then i’ve been babysitting them. I have plenty of experience outside of my own siblings as well as experience babysitting special needs. I get told often i’m a baby whisper and that I should invest my future career in child care and I think babysitting/nannying will help me a lot. I’m a very creative person and can come up with plenty of things to keep kids entertained, I myself am still a kid at heart. I started taking an EMt course but decided to further it later on so I do have my CPR as well as general knowledge. I love being a sitter not only to have bonds but because i feel like i can understand children better then my own self sometimes.

Dedicated and nurturing childcare professional with several years of hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I have supported families by providing safe, engaging, and developmentally appropriate care tailored to each child’s unique needs. My experience includes infant care (feeding, diapering, sleep routines), toddler and preschool developmental activities, and assisting school-aged children with homework, routines, and enrichment. I pride myself on creating a warm, structured, and positive environment where children feel secure, encouraged, and valued. I am patient, attentive, and proactive, with a strong understanding of child development and age-appropriate milestones. I value open communication with parents and consistently follow family preferences and routines. My goal is to support children’s emotional, social, and cognitive growth while being a reliable and trusted presence for the families I work with.

Hi there! My name is Tara, and I love being a babysitter because I genuinely enjoy caring for children and supporting families, especially knowing how hard, frustrating, and expensive child care is. I find it incredibly rewarding to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. Whether it’s playing games, helping with routines, meal prep, laundry, or providing calm and attentive care, I take pride in being incredibly dependable, trustworthy and patient. Building trust with both children and parents is so important to me, and I am here to help you ease any worries or anxieties you have! While my career didn’t initially start in child care, I do have years of experience babysitting family, friend’s children, and neighborhood children. In my past experiences, I have mostly worked in food service so meal prep is a breeze for me. Cleaning, laundry, and other household tasks are not a problem whatsoever. While I am not CPR or First Aid certified, I am more than willing to do so! I am currently relocating to the Philadelphia area, and having this type of job would be so fulfilling and mean so much to me to help in any type of way you need! I am very good with time management and being on schedule. Reliability and trust are very important to me, and I will respect all household rules you have and the way you’d like things to be done. I have great communication skills and am calm and responsible under pressure. I do have strong childcare skills and am focused on safety and supervision, while at the same time providing a fun and safe environment!

Hi! My name is Jackie. I have over 15 years experience with children of all ages. My last position was a nanny for 3 wonderful kids that I had the opportunity to become a part of their family and watch them grow into young adults. I love working with children. I'm a true multi tasker that gets things done. I love animals and am a bit OCD when it comes to cleaning. I can be strict when needed but can also be fun and cool. I have a 7 year old, 2 doggies, 5 lizards and a husband that I take care of on a daily basis so I can handle a lot!! I look forward to hearing from you!!
