Find experienced child care providers in Bear, DE

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.

Hiya! My name is Catherine, I’m 25 years old and I live in the Newark DE area. I’m the 3rd oldest of 6 girls. I know. I’m a very energetic person! I’ve played sports my whole life such as soccer, swim, volleyball, and basketball. I adore the outdoors, hiking is a hobby of mine along with art (painting). Becoming a caregiver of some sort has always been an interest of mine. My goal is to help children and families in need around the world by entering in programs to go volunteer in. But before I can do that, I want to help my local families as well. I want to give a helping hand to families that need that extra hand. I can work early morning, late evenings, or even over night if needed. Last minute night out? No problem! Help is on the way dear!

Hello prospective families! My name is Brittany, and I am a 36 year old . I have over 15 years of experience as a caregiver, working with individuals ranging in age from infants to 20 years old. Much of my work has been with families who have multiple children and children with varying mental and/or behavioral disorders. In addition to my caregiving experience, I have spent the past six years working in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, specifically with children on the autism spectrum. I am currently completing the requirements to become a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). For the past five years I have in a supervisory position overseeing multiple staff members and client cases receiving ABA services across home, community and school settings. This experience has been incredibly rewarding and has allowed me to develop specialized skills in communication, behavioral support, and fostering social and developmental growth. Working one-on-one with children, I have helped them develop important life skills, improve communication, and reduce challenging behaviors. This has further deepened my understanding of child development and strengthened my ability to adapt to each child’s unique needs. Looking back on my years of caregiving, I’ve learned a great deal about both myself and the responsibilities of caring for children. There have certainly been both good and challenging days, as any parent can attest to, but every experience has contributed to my growth and has shaped me into the caregiver I am today. I will always cherish these lessons and the memories I’ve made along the way. My caregiving philosophy is to try new things while ensuring that safety and fun are always the top priorities. I encourage the children I work with to explore new activities, meet new people, and experience new places. Whether it’s venturing into it's exploring the nature along Boathouse Row, or learning about physics at the Franklin Institute, I believe every day should be an opportunity for learning and fun! I look forward to connecting with you!

I had worked with children in voluntary work and childcare centers. Both experiences were very significant for me because I learned a lot about life and growth when I was around children. Being an independent worker also allows me to dedicate time to my hobbies and passions like cinema, writing, and arts. I earned a bachelor's degree in communication and audiovisual arts from Venezuela, where I am originally from. This means I am fluent in Spanish and could offer lessons to children if you are interested. In almost two years in the States, I've worked in two childcare centers. In Venezuela, during the pandemic, I did voluntary work with school-age children in the community to assist them with remote lessons and homework. Because of my daycare experience, I have basic training in Pediatric CPR and first Aid and some educational certifications.
