Hi I am first aid and CPR certified. I've had 21+yrs in the preschool Childcare setting. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish. I'm Medication Certified also, meaning I am able legally give childrenz medication correctly. Its a joy to be able to see a child flourish in their development. To me it's important to love and respect our children in everything, however we as adults have to have expectations for our children to meet to be successful. Although it'll be difficult though time, it'll be worth it at the end. I am confident to say every child has gotten attached to me through time. Zz

My name is Corrine. I'm 21 years old and a nursing student. I previously attended Widener University and am now taking a summer class at Delaware Tech through the first week of July. I’ll be continuing at Del Tech in the fall. I commute to campus and live near the University of Delaware. I’ve been working with kids since I was 14—starting as a volunteer at a local summer camp and babysitting for families in my neighborhood. At 16, I was hired by the camp, and I now work with the City of Newark’s before and after care program. I currently babysit for several families I’ve known for years, and I truly enjoy what I do. I love building relationships with kids and watching their personalities grow. It’s rewarding to be someone they can rely on and feel safe with, whether we’re playing games, reading books, or just talking. I really value being part of their support system and creating fun, positive experiences for them. I have experience with children as young as 6–8 months all the way up to 13 years old. I’ve cared for kids with a variety of needs, including epilepsy, Down syndrome, autism, ADHD/ADD, mobility impairments, and partial blindness. My experience spans casual babysitting, structured care in before/after-school programs, and summer camps. As a nursing student, I’ve completed coursework in child development, basic first aid, and safety. I’m CPR certified and trained in how to respond to seizures, allergic reactions, and other common emergencies. I’m also comfortable with feeding, diapering, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping.

I am currently a child and family wellbeing coach during the mid-day (approx 10-2) I hope to hear from the right family soon!

Hi there! My name is Amira, and I have over 15 years of experience caring for children as a babysitter, nanny, and now a proud mom to my 4-month-old daughter. After recently leaving the corporate pharmaceutical industry, I’ve decided to follow my passion for childcare and create a nurturing, home-based environment where little ones can thrive. My sister and I are in the process of moving our childcare business to Delaware, and we’re excited to become part of the Claymont community! As newcomers to the area, we’re looking to start small by offering childcare in my home. This allows me to stay with my daughter while providing a safe, loving, and engaging space for your child. I believe in fostering independence, curiosity, and a love for learning through a **Montessori-style approach**. This means: - Encouraging child-led play and exploration. - Providing hands-on, age-appropriate activities that promote growth and development. - Creating a structured yet flexible environment where children feel empowered to learn at their own pace. We understand how important it is to find the right fit for your family, so we’re starting small to ensure everyone feels comfortable and well cared for. Once our daycare is fully licensed and established, families who join us during this early phase will have their home-care rates grandfathered in as a thank-you for your trust and support. Our goal is to get to know our new community, build meaningful relationships, and provide a helping hand to families who need reliable, compassionate childcare. If you’re looking for a warm and experienced caregiver who will treat your little one like family, we’d love to connect! Let’s work together to create a happy, healthy, and supportive environment for our sweet little ones.

When your kids are with me, you can bet we’re doing something creative, different, engaging and fun. I am all about playing outdoors and encourage children to express their creativity and learn through imaginative play, art, music, dance, games, reading/writing and new experiences. Spontaneity and fun are important ingredients, and so is learning … and it usually follows the first two. Whether it’s helping the little ones learn life skills in their daily routines or getting kids intrigued by science and nature – life always presents opportunities for learning and for the amazing potential of a child to shine through. Seeing that light is one of my favorite things in the world; and being able to help foster and experience it is a blessing. I would love to continue honoring that blessing and to create wonderful, happy memories with you and your family!
