I am a retired project manager looking for part time work and started searching nanny/sitter jobs after several friends and family suggested I look into this, mentioning how well my children were raised.

Karen was the best. So sad she moved away, she was our go to babysitter. She was exactly what I need as an anxious mom who had a hard time letting go of control, she provided all the comfort I needed and more to get me out the door and enjoy a night out that my husband and I so desperately needed. She takes control, asks all the right questions, is playful, respectful, cares for your children as if they were her own and is a great communicator. Whichever new family gets to be graced with Karen's presence is a lucky one. Our loss is your gain.

I am a married empty nester with 3 grown daughters and six granddaughters. I live in Lewes, Delaware and am a certified substitute teacher with completed criminal background check. My latest experience has been with infants and toddlers. I have sat for a family for over seven years. When I began they had one daughter a year old. A year later their precious little boy was born. He is now nine years old and I have been caring for him since he was less than a month old 4 times a week. Since he is in school now, I am looking to become a "member" of another family for years to come. I currently sit for two little boys who are four and two once a week and have done so for nearly two years I absolutely love children of all ages and am capable of bathing , changing diapers, bottle feeding, swaddling reading, taking on walks, doing children's laundry, library,movies or whatever else their age dictates. I can play indoor and outdoor games, read if they are old enough. No matter what age they are, I enjoy being outside, playing or walking with their strollers or wagons. I will abide and enforce any rules you have regarding snacks, television, etc. All of these families will be happy to provide references on my behalf.

Jeanne was wonderful! She was available with relatively short notice to watch our 17-month old while on a weekend in Rehoboth. She kept us updated, put him to bed, and was flexible with our return time when a dinner ran long.

Hello! I'm Maria I'm 60, married to Quintin, have 2 adult step-children and 5 grandchildren, to my delight! I moved to the Delaware Beach area in 1996 and babysat with Nanny Sitting Service, cleaned at my Aunt's B&B and worked as a Certified Nursing Aid at our Beebe Hospital and locally, providing "in home care". I enjoy serving and assisting folks, with excellence, compassion, empathy and love. It's nice to watch peoples' children, so they can have a date night or get what they need done. Little ones are such fun and I love being part of their big little world and their growth!! Sometime, I bring goodies, because they're excited to see new toys and I like for them to show me their neat stuff and play along with them! I have worked with children at church and have mentored in elementary school and I have certification as a nursing aid and American Heart Assoc. Basic life Support (CPR&AED) certification.

Mayra has done excellent with my boys allowing the wife and I some needed rest and time together. She entertains them and teaches them along the way. She sticks to all bedtimes which sometimes can be a challenge with my kids. 10/10

Hello! My name is Lizz, and I have proudly called Lewes home for the past 26 years after moving to Delaware from Athens, Georgia. I am a single mother of two college-aged children and a Master's-level Special Education Teacher with a lifelong passion for caring for others. My background includes a bachelor's degree in Child and Family Development, and I have been working with children since I was 14 years old. What began as babysitting for family friends and neighbors grew into years of childcare experience throughout college and beyond. In addition to working with children, I also have education and experience in gerontology and caring for seniors. Over the years, I have provided a variety of support services, including babysitting, pet care, house sitting, respite care, and companion care. As a pet owner myself, I am also comfortable caring for animals and currently share my home with two dogs and a cat. Families describe me as dependable, reliable, patient, and easygoing. I have a positive outlook on life and genuinely enjoy helping others. Whether you need childcare for a few hours, support for a family member, or help caring for pets while you're away, I strive to provide safe, compassionate, and attentive care. Now that my children are away at college, I have more flexibility in my schedule. I am especially available during the summer months and also have evening and weekend availability throughout the school year. I would love the opportunity to help support your family and look forward to connecting with you!

This was our first time using any kind of online service for babysitters and leaving the kids with anyone we didn't already know so I was understandably a little nervous but Liz was fantastic with my 2-year old and 5-year old. She has such a calm demeanor and did a great job putting them down for bed. I really appreciated how much experience she has both raising her own children (now adults) as well as being a school teacher. Having someone with so much maturity really helped with my comfort level, especially since my daughters still so young. I would absolutely recommend Liz and use her as a sitter again.

Tahine was fantastic with my one year old and my 4 year old. She is a great communicator and always kept me updated on things. She was incredibly kind and patient with my 4 year old autistic child. Both my kids always looked forward to having her come babysit and continue to ask when they will get to see her again.

Arlene watched our dog for three weeks and was so wonderful with her. She cared for her as her own. She even took her on a trip to the shore❤️ Sofi was healthy and happy as ever when we returned, all thanks to Arlene! We highly recommend her for pet sitting!
