Clara M., Nanny in Thornton, PA 19373 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a 25-year-old new grad 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 just earned my RN licensure in September 2024, and will be working full-time in Pediatric critical care this October! 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 — even with nursing on the horizon, 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).

Amira A., Nanny in Thornton, PA 19373 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Amira, and I have over 15 years of experience caring for children as a babysitter, nanny, and now a proud mom to my 4-month-old daughter. After recently leaving the corporate pharmaceutical industry, I’ve decided to follow my passion for childcare and create a nurturing, home-based environment where little ones can thrive. My sister and I are in the process of moving our childcare business to Delaware, and we’re excited to become part of the Claymont community! As newcomers to the area, we’re looking to start small by offering childcare in my home. This allows me to stay with my daughter while providing a safe, loving, and engaging space for your child. I believe in fostering independence, curiosity, and a love for learning through a **Montessori-style approach**. This means: - Encouraging child-led play and exploration. - Providing hands-on, age-appropriate activities that promote growth and development. - Creating a structured yet flexible environment where children feel empowered to learn at their own pace. We understand how important it is to find the right fit for your family, so we’re starting small to ensure everyone feels comfortable and well cared for. Once our daycare is fully licensed and established, families who join us during this early phase will have their home-care rates grandfathered in as a thank-you for your trust and support. Our goal is to get to know our new community, build meaningful relationships, and provide a helping hand to families who need reliable, compassionate childcare. If you’re looking for a warm and experienced caregiver who will treat your little one like family, we’d love to connect! Let’s work together to create a happy, healthy, and supportive environment for our sweet little ones.
