Hello my name is Karen, I recently moved to Delaware in Aug 2021 from Bucks County Pa. I am married and live in Dover, I have 3 grown children and 5 grandchildren. I have done alot of babysitting with friends children and my own grandchildren, I do prefer to babysit newborns to young toddlers. I do have alot of energy and love pets. I can babysit in your home or mine but I do have a cat. I used to work as a pharmaceutical account specialist until my employer closed the business. I was a stay at home mom with 2 of my children and with my younger son I had to put him in daycares to find out he was being neglected because of 2 many kids and not enough teachers. I dont want to see that happen to anyone else. I will give your child my full one on one attention, send you updates and photos of your child through out the day also I will keep a record of there feeding, naps and playtime. I hope that you may consider me for your babysitting needs. Thankyou
