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. When I am not working or babysitting, I like to read, do crafts and puzzles, and spend time with my 2 Great Danes and my 13 year old foster pup :) Please feel free to contact me with any questions at all!

Hi I am first aid and CPR certified. I've had 21+yrs in the preschool Childcare setting. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish. I'm Medication Certified also, meaning I am able legally give childrenz medication correctly. Its a joy to be able to see a child flourish in their development. To me it's important to love and respect our children in everything, however we as adults have to have expectations for our children to meet to be successful. Although it'll be difficult though time, it'll be worth it at the end. I am confident to say every child has gotten attached to me through time. Zz

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!!!

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.

With over 5 years of hands-on experience in childcare, I bring a nurturing, patient, and highly dependable presence into every home I join. I have cared for children ranging from infancy to age 10, including managing the care of four girls of varying ages simultaneously—developing a strong ability to multitask, adapt, and meet each child’s individual needs. I also have experience working with children on the autism spectrum, offering a compassionate and understanding approach that ensures they feel safe, seen, and supported. I speak English fluently and am currently learning Korean, Spanish, and French, which helps foster a culturally rich and stimulating environment for children in global-minded households. Known for my warmth, professionalism, and discretion, I am trusted by families to provide exceptional care. I come with three strong references and a genuine passion for childhood development and supportive parenting. Whether you’re looking for a live-in or live-out nanny who can blend seamlessly into a high-standard household, I offer the poise, maturity, and personal dedication to rise to the occasion.
