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.
