Clara M.
- 9 years paid experience
- 14 miles

Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a 25-year-old new grad Registered Nurse (RN) in Pediatrics. I received my first BS in Psychology at Haverford College in 2022, and went back to school for an accelerated BS in Nursing at Villanova University in 2023-2024. I just earned my RN licensure in September 2024, and will be working full-time in Pediatric critical care this October! I have nearly 10 years of babysitting and nannying experience in both the private home-care and professional academic sectors, and have been so fortunate to amass an incredible circle of clients that have followed me through many years and much growth. I love this work and I feel incredibly excited and blessed to be able to expand my experience and passion into the healthcare sector. I am still working regularly for many of my long-time clients — even with nursing on the horizon, I am still excited and motivated to continue my "home" jobs and enjoy a change of pace from the rigor of the hospital setting. While I am not currently able to accept any full-time or regular-recurring new clients, due to my full-time schedule at the hospital, I would be glad to chat regarding occasional babysitting needs and opportunities for date nights, weekends, holidays, etc. I am still open to taking clients on in this capacity, and would be glad to connect on this front!! :) (Please note: due to my years of experience and my RN licensure, I can assure you that I will provide a high tier of attentive, customized, educated care for your children of all ages and unique intricacies. As such, my starting rate at this time is now $28/hr. Please feel free to send me a message if you would like to discuss my scale for multiple children and inquire about options. Thank you so much for your understanding in advance).

I have over five years of experience as a babysitter, caring for children ranging from infants to school-aged kids. I became a caregiver because I have always had a natural affinity for working with children. From a young age, I found joy in helping and nurturing others, which led me to pursue a career where I could make a meaningful difference in children’s lives. I love my job because it allows me to witness and contribute to the incredible growth and development of young minds. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing a child’s eyes light up when they learn something new or accomplish a milestone. The trust and bond I build with the children and their families are incredibly fulfilling. What makes me good at my job is my combination of patience, creativity, and dedication. I am adept at creating engaging and educational activities tailored to each child’s interests and developmental stage. My strong communication skills ensure that I can effectively collaborate with parents to provide consistent and high-quality care. Additionally, my adaptability allows me to handle the varying needs and personalities of children, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for all.
