Kelly Wilmington
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kelly, and I’m excited to offer babysitting as a fun and flexible side-gig. I have an associate’s degree as an ultrasound technologist and currently work as a software developer, so I bring both a medical background and strong problem-solving skills to my caregiving style. I have experience caring for my 6-month-old niece and have babysat friends’ children ranging from toddlers to teens (ages 2 to 15). I’ve also supported seniors and have plenty of experience with pets—I have both cats and dogs—so I’m very comfortable helping with multi-care households. I love caregiving because kids are genuinely fun to be around, and I enjoy creating an environment that’s safe, engaging, and nurturing. I’d describe my approach as “fun but firm”—I like to keep things playful while still maintaining structure. A little about me: I enjoy playing the ukulele, singing, and sewing. I’m creative, patient, and love bringing activities that spark imagination and joy. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Izzy! I am 20 years old and going into my Junior Year at Penn State. I am studying elementary education with a minor in special ed. I have always loved working with children. I started with babysitting my aunts child when she was just 2 and have cared for multiple families since then. I am also cpr and first aid certified. I am only around until the beginning of June but I would love to keep myself busy and make a little extra money before then. Please do not hesitate to reach out!

Sharon Wilmington
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Sharon and I am seeking a part time child care position within 25 mins. of home in North Wilmington DE. I live in the artist community of Arden. I'm a lifelong caregiver/nanny/mother, a music director/professional musician and a private music teacher. My experience in caregiving is extensive and I love kids, with a particular soft spot for babies. I was last certified in CPR/AED and first aid in 2018 and would be willing to recertify if requested. My most recent employer is a wonderful family in Newark, DE. I cared for their son from when he was 2 1/2 mos. old to 4 years old when he started school full time. We still spend at least one day a month together - they are family. This platform is new to me so no reviews here yet; I have excellent recommendations and reviews on care.com and Gigsalad.com under my name. Some of my strengths include patience, humor, dependability and experience. I also have professional qualifications in the arts (writing, music - both performance and teaching) with significant skills in drawing and photography. Your child will benefit from games, art, movement, time in nature, music, and more. I believe in creating structure, lovingly set and maintained, for the stable nurturing environment this creates for a child. My presence is closer to an energetically and mentally young grandparent than a college student. Working my entire life in the arts and with young children has gifted me with a sense of joy, curiosity and fun as well as the dependability and experience needed to care for your child. My hope is that being in my 60's is not held against me, as I am not your average sixties child. I look forward to hearing from you, Sharon

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
