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!

Hello! I’ve always enjoyed working with kids, and I love being a sitter because it allows me to support families while creating fun and positive experiences for their little ones. I previously worked at a learning center, where I gained experience with children of different ages and learned how to create engaging, educational activities. I’m patient, reliable, and I enjoy keeping kids entertained with crafts, games, and hands-on fun. I am CPR + First Aid certified, and as a current college nursing major, I take safety and care very seriously. Communication is very important to me, I will always make sure parents feel updated and comfortable. My goal is to ensure both parents and children feel comfortable, cared for, and confident while I’m with their little ones. I’d love to be someone your family can depend on.

Hi, my name is Alyssa and I am so excited to meet you! I’m currently attending Del Tech Community College as a sophomore for Early Childhood Education. My experience with babysitting/nannying as of right now I am working with a family and taking care of their son but I started when I was in the 5th and 6th grade when my aunt was running a at home daycare and I used to help her when I got out of school to entertain the kids and watch over them. When I got into middle school I started to watch my three cousins I still do until this day. When COVID hit and we had to do school online my cousin stayed with me and my mom for a month or two and i was responsible for helping her with her homework and waking her up on time so she could get on zoom.I used to also help my cousin watch a family friend of hers newborn baby and their young son. Then I occasionally watch my neighbor younger daughter when she comes over and plays on the weekend or sometimes when she get off the bus. I enjoy doing fun activities, crafting things and watching kid friendly shows and movies. I can’t wait to meet your family!

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!
