Seeking Piano Teacher for Young Beginners
We have two sons, ages 7 and 5, for whom we would like to find a piano teacher. If possible, we are looking for someone to come to our home in the Media area for a half hour lesson with each.
We’re looking for someone with experience who can provide at least a reference or two from a past or present client. We’re open to different approaches and already have the My First Piano Adventure series books by Faber (I used to teach piano lessons). Potentially interested in the Suzuki method with an experienced teacher.
Please respond with rates and availability.
Best,
Rob Cohen
Au pair / babysitting job
We are moving to Media for 1 year to complete fellowships at Penn. We are looking to find an au pair who can help us babysit our 3 children for the summer & 2026/2027 school year (age 3, 11, 14). The job is flexible, but ideally we are looking for someone to help babysit the 3 year old during July and August until school starts. Once school starts we need someone to help watch kids after school for a few hours and babysit on occasional weekend evenings. Ideally the person would have a car and be able to help fetch from school if needed and supervise homework or play with the toddler. We’d like to develop a long term relationship with a single person for the year who can help regularly, particularly in weekday afternoons, and get to know the kids. Please email if you are interested to discuss further.
