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.

I'm the oldest of five children, and I currently work at a middle school as a paraprofessional. I've been a nanny for about a year to a 2-3 year old, and I love kids of all ages! I love planning fun and new experiences, and I love bonding with children, making them feel loved, seen, and cared for. They're such a delight, and I believe in making both them and the parents comfortable and safe. Being almost twenty, I bring a lot of fun, (yet very safe :) ) energy, and I've done everything from meal prep to full-day activity-planning. I can only work after school hours because of my full-time work schedule, and I can be consistent and on-standby however I'm needed!

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 Alyssa and I am so excited to meet you! I’m currently a sophomore at Del Technical Community College, pursuing an Early Childhood Education degree. 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 an 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 to 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 also used to help my cousin watch a family friend of hers newborn baby and their young son. Then I occasionally watch my neighbor's younger daughter when she comes over and plays on the weekend or sometimes when she gets off the bus. As of right now I do have a 6-year-old boy I watch we go outside explore, pretend play using his imagination do fun activities, craft things, and watch kid-friendly shows and movies. I wait to meet your family!

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!
