Sharon $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

Ava $16 per hour for 1 child

My name is Ava, and I am an 18-year-old caregiver with experience in babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting. I have approximately four years of hands-on experience caring for children and over eight years of experience working with animals. I am reliable, responsible, and dedicated to creating a safe, clean, and positive environment for families and pets. I have three to four years of experience caring for toddlers and grade-school children. While my experience with infants is limited, I am eager and willing to learn. I am comfortable assisting with daily routines such as getting children ready for school or bed, preparing basic meals, helping with homework, and maintaining schedules. I enjoy engaging children through activities like coloring, watching shows, playing games, and taking them to parks or fun outings. I also have my own car, allowing me to safely transport children to and from school or activities when needed. Additionally, I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED. In terms of pet care, I have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs of all sizes and breeds—from Cane Corsos to Yorkies—as well as reptiles and small animals. My services include feeding, walking, playing, basic training, cage cleaning, and general care. I have no allergies and am comfortable caring for long-haired animals and pets of any size. For household support, I offer cleaning, tidying, laundry, organizing, plant care, cooking basic meals, and running errands. I can also provide my own cleaning supplies if required. I take pride in being dependable, adaptable, and attentive to the unique needs of each household.
