Hi!I’ve been caring for children for over 8 years. I started babysitting when I was young and continued consistently for multiple years before becoming a professional nanny. I’ve been nannying for the past 4 years, with regular experience caring for infants, toddlers, and early school age but I have babysitting experience up to 15 years old. I am comfortable working with children with special needs and currently have experience supporting kids with Type 1 diabetes, autism, and ADHD. My approach is grounded in a positive discipline and Montessori-inspired philosophy. I deeply value honoring children’s emotions, promoting independence, and encouraging learning through play in creative and meaningful ways. I love making everyday moments fun and educational with activities that nurture curiosity and development.I enjoy planning activities tailored to each child or children I am with from sensory play and story time to exploring nature trails and building intricate lego projects all afternoon. Along with childcare, I love making parents lives easier and help keep things running smoothly around the home with meal prep, tidying, organizing play spaces, loading the dishwasher, and cleaning main areas.Outside of childcare I love baking, reading, and creating art, which are all things I love bring into my time with children whenever I can.

Hi! My name is Takara and I’m a 19-year-old college student with a love for working with kids. I have hands-on experience caring for my niece and three nephews, ages 2 to 6, so I’m very comfortable with toddlers and young children. I’m patient, responsible, and enjoy creating a fun and safe environment—whether that’s helping with homework, playing games, or sticking to routines like meals and bedtime. I’m also a big animal lover, so I’m completely comfortable in homes with pets, especially cats and dogs! I’m looking for babysitting opportunities where I can support families and make sure their kids feel safe, happy, and cared for.

I have over a year of experience caring for a family with two young girls, ages 2 and 4, who will be starting school this September. I am also a Registered Nurse with five years of experience working as a School Nurse, providing care and support to children in grades K–8.As a parent of a two-year-old myself, I understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I offer childcare in my home, which is child-friendly, safe, and filled with plenty of toys and activities to encourage learning, creativity, and play.My two-year-old child will be with me during care and will provide a built-in playmate for your child, allowing for social interaction, friendship, and age-appropriate activities throughout the day. I enjoy creating a fun environment where children can learn, play, and develop important social skills together.I am able to provide reliable childcare, including school pick-up and drop-off, and I bring the added benefit of a healthcare background, experience with children of all ages, patience, and a genuine love for working with children.

Hi! I’m a rising senior nursing student at the University of Pennsylvania. I have been caring for children since I was 10 years old, when I began helping care for my younger brother, who has autism and special needs. Earlier this summer, I also babysat and worked with children at an orphanage school. I now have open availability for the rest of the summer and am looking for part-time babysitting opportunities. I have experience caring for children of different ages and needs, and I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for every child. I’d love the opportunity to help your family!
