A little bit about me

I’m very energetic and bubbly. I love coming up with crafts and fun activities. I’ve worked
3-4 summers at the child development center on the naval base. I’ve had to manage between 8-12 school age kids at water parks and the zoo. I’ve taken lots of CPR and child safety class. And my prices are negotiable. I watch a child overnight at my place overnight on some days so my evenings maybe filled

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Zoé, and I’m currently pursuing my Master of Social Work (MSW) at Temple University. I have a true passion for working with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel supported.

Over the past four years, I’ve worked with children as a YMCA Youth Counselor, peer mentor, and mentor through a Big Sister programs. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, creativity, and building trusting relationships with both children and families.

I’m looking for a full-time nanny position because I genuinely enjoy being a positive, dependable presence in a child’s life. My background in child development, mentoring, and youth programming allows me to provide a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment while supporting each child’s unique needs. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family’s support system.

A little bit about me

I am an undergrad who is looking to get back into caring for babies/toddlers as well as a home!! I have great experience being an au pair, and would love to be the one you trust to care for your childcare and any house care needs. I also work amazing with animals, and am not opposed to doing pet care as needed. My goal is always to build a strong bond with the children I care for while being a reliable + supportive help to the whole family. Whether that’s with baby care, toddler care, pet care, meal prepping, or household tasks. I’m flexible with scheduling as it allows me to be especially helpful with mornings and daily routines. I truly enjoy what I do and would love to find a family I can grow with. : )

A little bit about me

Hi my name is Elena, El for short and I'm a upbeat positive gal from upstate NY looking to move into the Philly area. Currently looking at getting first aid and CPR certification. My mother was a nurse and so I'm no stranger to a first aid kit and with 6 close cousins under 12 I'm used to wrangling little ones. I'm looking for a live in position to help me get my bearings in the city and would love to explore the city and educational museums with little ones. Prefer only children who are potty trained and I am not a driver due to personal reasons, Hope we make a match!
