Megan K., Babysitter in Laurel, DE 19956 with 5 years of paid experience

I have five years experience as a professional nanny, (four of those years with a single family), in addition to several years experience as a babysitter. I am the mother of a toddler. I am completely comfortable caring for all ages. Some of my strengths are communication, respect for each family's parenting style and beliefs, reliability, and creating a balanced and safe environment for children to learn, grow, and be creative.

Grace H., Babysitter in Laurel, DE 19956 with 4 years of paid experience

I enjoy being a sitter because kids are fun to be around, and no two days are ever the same. I love the energy, creativity, and joy that children bring, and I find it really rewarding to be part of their day-to-day learning and growth. I have about four years of experience caring for children of family members, friends, and teachers. I am also a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) with BLS certification. I’m currently looking for a more fun and upbeat job that allows me to earn money while doing something I love before heading off to nursing school. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have CNA class and clinical experience caring for others. I am very fun, outgoing, and creative, and I enjoy working with children of all ages. I’m responsible, attentive, and always focused on keeping kids safe while making sure they’re happy and engaged.

Hi, I am Sophia Blaufuss. I am a student athlete at Salisbury University majoring in Exercise Science. I have experience providing both paid babysitting services and volunteer childcare support. Through babysitting, I have cared for children of various ages, ensuring their safety, engaging them in age-appropriate activities, and maintaining a structured and nurturing environment. In addition, I have cousins and have volunteered working with children with special needs, which has strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to provide individualized care and support. I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified, and I am also a trained lifeguard, giving me strong emergency response skills and a high level of preparedness when supervising children. These experiences have helped me develop responsibility, communication skills, and a strong commitment to child safety and well-being.I am looking for babysitting and nannying opportunities, as well as jobs that involve transportation, such as school pick-ups, drop-offs, or activities.
