About Allison

Hi! I'm a fun, reliable, caring & vaccinated nanny who moved to Philly from California about a year and a half ago. I have a MFA, a car, & a loving/creative approach to childcare. I have 15 years of childcare experience & experience teaching art to grades 2-6 (and was teaching part time last year, so I have a full background check and all my clearances.) I'm patient, personable, responsible, flexible, & always remain calm in stressful situations. The families I've worked for have always felt more like family to me, & I understand how important it is to have a sitter who will give your kids the same level of care & consideration as you would. I am experienced with all ages, including infants, as well as children with special needs. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I am very engaging and active. I'm very adamant about only using my phone to communicate with parents while sitting, & I love pets. Happy to provide references. Hope to hear from you!
