Babysitting Forum


Do you babysit or know anyone who does?

Post here if you are looking for a sitter or can offer sitting services to other students.

If you are offering services, please list your name, experience, and availability.

If you need a babysitter, please include your children's ages, needed coverage, and rates.

Re: Babysitting services?


Some tips for Penn parents:

• Start a babysitting pool with other Penn parents. This has worked particularly well when families live in the same neighborhood or building
• Post a flyer in the Grad Center or use the regular PhD messageboards to advertise this "job"
• Ask other parents in your department for babysitting recommendations.

• For babysitting services, Penn's ChildCare Resource Network suggests the following bonded agencies:
      Penn Children's Center (215) 898-5268
      Call-A-Granni (215) 924-8723
      Your Other Hands (215) 790-0990
Please call in advance for reservations, hours, and fee information. Space will be limited.

Re: Babysitting Forum


there are babysitting opportunities listed on Penn's (somewhat hidden) "job board" that undergrads access. Not sure how well it works, but it's probably worth a shot:

Also - I've had luck asking faculty in my department who they use for their kids.
