After receiving my RN in 1991 I worked in various aspects of nursing. Since I retired I have been sitting with a girl for the past 3 years, she is now age 9. I picked her up from school and we would do homework, chores and crafts together. I work for this family on an as needed basis at present. I am looking for a similar part time permanent job at this time.

Hi my name is Jada. A little about myself: I have always had a love and passion for children. There is something so amazing about being able to teach them. I graduated high school over a year ago and am now attending Delaware Tech, pursuing elementary education. I do school via online. I am a very energetic and highly attentive person. I love to do fun activities with the kids because you always get to see just how quick they catch on while also enjoying themselves. Kids have always taken to me from my youth. I would love to have the opportunity to help your children learn and grow. I also had nannies growing up and the 3 I do remember were the ones who showed my brother and I the most love. I would be honored to bring that same fun, safety, and love to your home. Thank you!

Why do I love being a sitter? I genuinely love being a sitter because working with children has always come naturally to me. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can learn, grow, and feel understood. I’ve grown up around younger siblings and cousins, so caring for children has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. What experience do I have? I have experience with children of all ages. I currently substitute teach across all grade levels, which has helped me understand a wide range of developmental stages and learning styles. I also used to mentor kids, giving me even more one-on-one experience supporting their emotional and academic growth. On top of that, I’ve always taken care of younger siblings and family members, which has given me years of hands-on experience in childcare. What skills and training do I have? I earned a technical diploma through a Teaching Academy program and completed multiple child development classes in high school. I’m also a licensed paraprofessional and CPR/First Aid certified. My training has prepared me to handle daily routines, learning activities, and unexpected situations calmly and confidently. Overall, I bring patience, creativity, and professional childcare training to every family I work with, and I’m committed to helping kids feel safe, supported, and excited to be themselves.

Hi my name is Cass, I am a 20-year-old college student and have been babysitting since I was in seventh grade. I have two younger sisters. And cousins ranging from newborn to 14 so I have always gravitated towards caring for kiddos. I enjoy doing crafts and can help them do their homework. I am CPR, first aid and epipen trained. I also work at an assisted living facility. With my CPR and BLS certification, along with being a licensed Medication Technician through the Maryland State Nursing Board, I bring a wealth of experience to babysitting and caregiving. Since the age of 10, I've cared for my grandma and younger cousins, honing my caregiving skills. Additionally, over the past five years, I've provided pet sitting services for family and friends on a recurring basis. These experiences have not only equipped me with the necessary knowledge and skills but have also instilled in me a deep sense of responsibility and care when looking after others, both human and animal alike.
