Hello! My name is Annie and I have a passion for art and teaching. I have a bachelors degree in Art Education from Millserville University . I have experience working with infants to preteens as I worked in a learning center (k-6), a daycare (infants to 5 year olds), and as a preschool teacher (3 year olds). I also student taught in an elementary school as well as a high school. I have three nephews and two nieces who I grew up babysitting. I can change diapers, prepare dinner, and preform any other basic necessities needed while caring for your child.

I have several years of babysitting and nanny experience with all age children from Infant to elementary age. I have a degree in elementary education, and I love children. I am very patient and affectionate, responsible and trustworthy. I am experienced and comfortable with sleep and potty training, as well as feeding schedules and issues. I love arts and crafts, learning activities, and outside activities. I understand the importance of having a balanced schedule. I am also the mother of a teenage boy. As a parent, I have had nannies myself, so I have been on both sides and understand the pressures of finding a good person. I am a happy person, and easy to get along with. I have several references from families who I was with for many years. I am currently available for occasional weeknight sitting.

Clara M.
- 9 years paid experience
- 3 miles

Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a 25-year-old new grad 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 just earned my RN licensure in September 2024, and will be working full-time in Pediatric critical care this October! 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 — even with nursing on the horizon, 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).

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

I have 20+ years experience working in Pediatrics. I work full time at PennMedicine and my children are grown. I would love to share my expertise and experience working with infants (including premies and twins), preschool age, school age, teens/tweens, and children with special needs. I have degrees in Early Childhood Education and Psychology. I specialize in social/emotional development and helping build coping skills in children. I used babysitters while my children were young. I know how hard it is to find a quality caregiver that you can trust and are spending meaningful time with your children. Dog lover.

Amira A.
- 15 years paid experience
- 10 miles

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.
