Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a 26 year-old 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 am currently working full-time in Pediatrics in the hospital. :) 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 — and even with nursing my full-time job, 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).

Clara is wonderful! She’s always on time and very sweet. She’s great with our son and was really put to the test when he became stomach sick while under her care. She was quick to give us an update and remained calm and took such great care comforting him ❤️ We would definitely recommend her !

My name is Natalia, I’m 28 years old. My contact phone number: (971) 425 9318 ☺️ I bring over five years of extensive experience working with children ranging from newborns to 12 years old. I am deeply passionate about working with children and find great joy in closely observing and supporting their development. In my home country, Brazil, I studied to become a teacher and specialized in Special Education. This academic background, coupled with my practical experience, has equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to cater to children's diverse needs effectively. Since moving to the United States, I have accumulated over two years of experience working with children of various ages and managing multiple children simultaneously. This experience has further honed my ability to handle different situations with ease and adaptability. I pride myself on being flexible, patient, and capable of managing challenging situations calmly and efficiently. I am a reliable and attentive caregiver who prioritizes the safety and well-being of the children under my care. My approach is always centered on providing a secure, nurturing environment where children can thrive. I am proactive in engaging children in activities that stimulate their growth and development, ensuring they are always engaged and learning. My dedication, responsibility, flexibility, patience, and active involvement with children make me an excellent candidate for your babysitting needs. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my skills and experiences align with your expectations.

We love Natalia! My girls can be anxious with babysitters but ask for Natalia because they have so much fun with her (bonus points because she’s not only active and engaged, but safe and thoughtful too!) Feel very lucky we found her and only wish we could use her more often!

Samantha was wonderful with our 2 young boys. She was even able to put them to bed, which is a feat! The boys were asking for her the next day, which is a sign of what a great experience they had with her too! I am looking forward to continuing to work with Samantha.

Hi! My name is Decontee, I am currently a junior at Kutztown University, majoring in Elementary Education. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers. During school breaks, I work at a daycare. I also tutor occasionally as well. I am available on Friday evenings, weekends, and college holiday breaks (thanksgiving, winter break, etc). When I’m not working or in school, I love to read and watch movies. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and would provide references and clearances if requested. Unfortunately, I am not comfortable with pets.

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.

We were very pleased, she was running around chasing out boys (1 and 3) as soon as she got in the door. Asked lots of questions so as to not bother us during the night. Thank you!

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.

Leah babysat my kids, aged 12 and 7, for two weeks over the summer. She was with them every weekday for between 4 and 8 hours, and managed to keep them entertained and off their computer screens -- which is something of a miracle! She was very good at playing board games, drawing with them and taking them on short outings. Despite the fact that my 12-year-old son and my 7-year-old daughter have very different personalities, she managed to keep them both happy. She is a compassionate person who understands kids, and she is organized and competent.
