My life experience was working in rhe medical industry for 27 years. I am CPR/AED and First Aid certified. I also have a clear and complete background and MV check.

Veronica is an absolutely wonderful babysitter. She is professional, responsive, flexible, and incredibly kind. My 6-month-old son’s face lights up when he sees her, which says it all. Her calm, confident energy and experience with infants immediately put me at ease. It’s clear she truly loves what she does. I feel so lucky to have found her and can’t recommend her highly enough!

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!

Hi! My name is Kaitlin. My mom ran a daycare in our home for 18 years. I have always loved children and would always help her when I came home from school. I have been babysitting since age 15. I am currently a registered ER nurse and am certified in Basic Life Support, Advanced Cardiac Life Support, and Pediatric Advanced Life Support.

Kaitlin was beyond wonderful. She gets 10 stars ✨ she was amazing to work with and I was not worried leaving Leah under her care. I got regular notifications with pictures and I knew Leah was well taken care of. Kaitlin is part of our extended family now and I would highly recommend her services.

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!

Brittany is fantastic! She was the after school babysitter for my two sons (age 6 and 9) and for two boys (age 8 and 11) from a neighboring family for 2 years (2010-12). She picked them up to school and took them to park, library, music lessons, swim lessons. She helped with homework, practicing, fed them dinner. etc. These 4 boys can be tough customers -- they don't always get along or follow instructions--but Brittany is firm, consistent, pateint, and warm all at the same time. You will love her.

Hi, My name is Sharon, and Rachel has been the full-time nanny for my little girl (now 19 months old) for over a year and she is AMAZING! I work from home several days a week so I am around to see the care she is taking of my daughter, and I have been very happy with everything. My daughter is excited to see Rachel every day and Rachel keeps her fully occupied. They love to go on walks together when the weather is nice, and she drives her to gym classes a few times a week. She is VERY patient with my little girl, and I often hear them giggling which makes me smile as a mom! Please feel free to contact me if you would like any more feedback. You would be very lucky to get her!! Sharon 301-332-5076

Hi, I have been babysitting for most of my life about 19 plus years whether it was for siblings(2) or the neighborhood children.I've been told that I am a piped piper of children and I love it, watching the children's faces light up when the are learning something new and playing and having a good time.I do know CPR and FirstAid skills and I am a Professional Personal Chef which comes in handy for the parent who always ask the question "what's for dinner".Also through my church I run the children's choir and children's sunday school ages(4 thru 16) which is part of my Children's ministry. Even though I don't have children of my own yet I am passionate for children.I volunteer in my church and surrounding community.My caregiving philosophy is "It takes a village to raise a child" meaning everyone can help and needs help(good help old school values and manners). Boardgames are my favorite!!!
