Find experienced babysitters in Harrington, DE

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 Holly. I have a passion for children of all ages. I have a bachelors in child development as well as an associates in early childhood. I love watching children light up when they learn something new. I enjoy being a nanny because there is so much flexibility in the way you can teach a young child. You can take children outside and on field trips, you can change the environment in which a child needs to stay active and engaged. I am Cpr/ first aid certified until 2023. I have nannied for military families and my husband is active duty stationed at Dover Afb. I understand military life being a spouse.

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 names Honesty ( yes it’s my real name I get that a lot lol ). I’m 20 years old, I’ve been babysitting and watching kids since I can remember. I’m the oldest of 4 and come from a huge family so chaos and kid is nothing new to me. I have my own car and have been driving for years so plenty of experience there. I’d say I’m very laid back and patient but also a huge kid at heart. I love the outdoors and finding anything to stay busy especially with the weather so nice. I have a lot of free time right now and want to find a different career path and child care seems promising! Also a few of my family members with like autism and physical disability so I understand the patients and care that comes with it. I’d never treat anyone differently than I’d want my own family treated. All things said nothings new to me and im ready for anything. I hope to hear back and thank you!

Experienced, nurturing nanny offering reliable, organized care with a strong focus on routines, household management, active play, and creating a safe, supportive environment where children and families can truly thrive.

Hi, I'm Jadyn! I'm a friendly and patient childcare provider with six years of experience, and I truly enjoy supporting families. It's a privilege to offer reliable childcare, and my previous babysitting roles have deepened my love for caring for children. I prioritize open communication with parents, keeping them updated on their child's day and addressing any concerns that arise. I believe in following the parents' lead on household rules, as every family has its own way of doing things. I love engaging kids in various activities, from outdoor sports and board games to educational games that make learning fun, arts and crafts are my personal favorite! I'm comfortable caring for children ranging from toddlers to preteens. With some college education (still in school) and certifications in CPR and First Aid, you can trust that your kids are in safe hands. I have a car, and am comfortable with pets. I look forward to creating a fun and nurturing environment for your little ones!

Hi, my name is Alyssa and I am so excited to meet you and your family! I have my high school diploma and am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED. I'm currently a sophomore at Del Technical Community College, pursuing an Early Childhood Education degree. My experience with babysitting/nannying came from my aunt who had an at-home daycare and I used to help her after school and on days off from school. I have worked with three families with their kids ranging from 1 year old to 11 years old. I still work with one family. I enjoy a variety of games/activities with children including exploring different places, outdoor activities, board games, educational activities, pretend play using kids' imagination doing fun activities, crafting, baking, watching kid-friendly shows, and movies.

My name is Amaira, I have a bachelor of Science degree. I have worked in many health care settings and so I am BLS/CPR certified. I’ve been babysitting and substitute teaching during my gap years before applying graduate school. I love being a positive and happy role model for the youth, they’re very impressionable and deserve to have good figures in their life. I enjoy being outside and exploring nature around us. I’m an avid reader, I love to crochet and paint. I’m a very crafty person and love teaching others how to create as well.

I am a 20 year old college student, majoring in nursing. I have multiple younger siblings so for as long as I can remember I have been babysitting and looking over children. I have worked in various child care facilities across the country as well. I am a fun babysitter who pays attention to detail. I am a very creative person as well so I can keep the children engaged but I am also big on prioritization, so appropriately after chores and/or homework. In addition to babysitting, I have been part-time tutor for about 5 years now.

My name is Leah and I am twenty years old. And I absolutely adore children and culture! I am outgoing and I love to sing and play sports, and also have big dreams and imagination! I have Nannied and babysat since I was 16 and have been doing my own laundry since I was 10, so I would be more than happy to help with anything from childcare to housework. I think children are so precious and so often they just need more love than we can imagine. Also, as a side note, I was adopted so if you have any adopted children I would be able to very much so sympathize and understand some difficulties that can come with that. I have a LOT of little cousins under the age of five whom I see and take care of often. I also have a few months old baby nephew whom I love. I spent two summers nannying for a 2 and 7 years old (no overnight stay) and taking care of a dog and the house as well. I believe in grace with children but also discipline for not listening. Otherwise, they could harm themselves or others.I am also currently babysitting a two year old little boy and I have babysat a lot of different ages over the years! I just want to be a light in their day and grow as a person myself. I would also love to help out around the house!
