Clara M., Babysitter in West Chester, PA 19382 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a 26 year-old Registered Nurse (RN) in Pediatrics. I received my first BS in Psychology at Haverford College in 2022, and went back to school for an accelerated BS in Nursing at Villanova University in 2023-2024. I am currently working full-time in Pediatrics in the hospital. :) I have nearly 10 years of babysitting and nannying experience in both the private home-care and professional academic sectors, and have been so fortunate to amass an incredible circle of clients that have followed me through many years and much growth. I love this work and I feel incredibly excited and blessed to be able to expand my experience and passion into the healthcare sector. I am still working regularly for many of my long-time clients — and even with nursing my full-time job, I am still excited and motivated to continue my "home" jobs and enjoy a change of pace from the rigor of the hospital setting. While I am not currently able to accept any full-time or regular-recurring new clients, due to my full-time schedule at the hospital, I would be glad to chat regarding occasional babysitting needs and opportunities for date nights, weekends, holidays, etc. I am still open to taking clients on in this capacity, and would be glad to connect on this front!! :) (Please note: due to my years of experience and my RN licensure, I can assure you that I will provide a high tier of attentive, customized, educated care for your children of all ages and unique intricacies. As such, my starting rate at this time is now $28/hr. Please feel free to send me a message if you would like to discuss my scale for multiple children and inquire about options. Thank you so much for your understanding in advance).

Natalia D., Babysitter in West Chester, PA 19382 with 5 years of paid experience

My name is Natalia, I’m 28 years old. My contact phone number: (971) 425 9318 ☺️ I bring over five years of extensive experience working with children ranging from newborns to 12 years old. I am deeply passionate about working with children and find great joy in closely observing and supporting their development. In my home country, Brazil, I studied to become a teacher and specialized in Special Education. This academic background, coupled with my practical experience, has equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to cater to children's diverse needs effectively. Since moving to the United States, I have accumulated over two years of experience working with children of various ages and managing multiple children simultaneously. This experience has further honed my ability to handle different situations with ease and adaptability. I pride myself on being flexible, patient, and capable of managing challenging situations calmly and efficiently. I am a reliable and attentive caregiver who prioritizes the safety and well-being of the children under my care. My approach is always centered on providing a secure, nurturing environment where children can thrive. I am proactive in engaging children in activities that stimulate their growth and development, ensuring they are always engaged and learning. My dedication, responsibility, flexibility, patience, and active involvement with children make me an excellent candidate for your babysitting needs. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my skills and experiences align with your expectations.

Gale C., Babysitter in West Chester, PA 19382 with 7 years of paid experience

I am seeking either full-time or part-time caregiving or babysitting jobs in the area. I am willing to babysit in the Exton, West Chester, Downingtown, Malvern and the Chester Springs area. My schedule is very flexible since all five of my children have moved out on their own. My background: I homeschooled my children to 8th grade (some other them but not all). I was a Sunday School teacher for many years to teenaged girls and elementary grade levels. I studied Special Education and Computer Science. Ended up programming computers for over 20 years. I always wanted to teach and be a caregiver even though Software Developing served my family well. I now am fulfilling my desires as a Substitute teacher of all ages and I am a part time care giver to a lady with Parkinson's Disease. I also babysit for many families and can provide a lot of references. Really enjoy taking care of people and giving them a good quality of life. I was a personal trainer and love helping others exercise as well. Since I am a Substitute Teacher all my security clearances and background checks are up to date. As a result of being in the corporate world I have an appreciation for working moms/dads that struggle with juggling work and family. I love helping others because I really remember how hard it was to be at work (especially in IT) and to take care of children. I am very athletic. I absolutely love biking, running, yoga and swimming. I work out every day. I am very energetic by nature. Please email if you have any questions about my past babysitting or caregiving experiences. Thanks, Gale
