Corrine B., Nanny in New Castle, DE 19720 with 7 years of paid experience

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.

Victoria P., Nanny in New Castle, DE 19720 with 3 years of paid experience

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.

Crystal C., Nanny in New Castle, DE 19720 with 18 years of paid experience

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!!!

Cameron C., Nanny in New Castle, DE 19720 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi families! I am a professional nanny/household manager of over 7 years in private homes along the Main Line and surrounding areas. From being a nanny, I bring with me skills in working with children from newborn to teenage years, and I have taken classes in early childhood development that have shaped the way I approach the kids I care for. I have experience working with children who experience Autism/ADHD and developmental delays. I implement and maintain daily schedules, ensure screen time is limited, and thoroughly enjoy being outside with my nanny kids. Over my years of being a nanny, I have developed a deep passion for organization and ensuring homes run as efficiently as possible, as I naturally also take care of the homes the children reside in. Some things I enjoy doing for others include (but are not limited to): - Light housekeeping such as laundry, vacuuming, dishes etc - Pet care (walking, feeding, grooming etc) - Organization (pantries, closets, creating systems that flow) - Tracking household supplies to replenish inventory (pantry, toiletries, cleaning products etc) - Coordinating routine household logistics such as deliveries, basic service needs and simple scheduling needs - Pickup and dropoff as needed + more! If you are interested in speaking, please do not hesitate to reach out. I look forward to chatting!
