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

Essington
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 22 families in Westtown, PA

Hi everyone! My name is Arielle! I am 28 years old and I work full time as a flight attendant based out of PHL. Originally from New Jersey, but I’ve lived in Florida a majority of my life working for the theme parks in the Orlando area (both Seaworld and Universal) and spent time as a theme park nanny! I’ve been working with children since age 16 and have cared for a wide range of ages and multiples; although most of my experience has been with newborns and up to age 6, I have plenty of experience with ages 7+ and enjoy caring for them just as much! I have worked for Corporate Kids Events, a company that specializes in childcare for large events, working in the newborn to 2 year old age group. I nannied in 2017 for a few families and was part of a nanny share briefly! Some fun facts about me include I was on my high school swim team for 3 years and I am a middle child of 6 with the age gap between my youngest sibling and I being 17 years! Please reach out with any questions regarding my schedule; I am pretty flexible on weekdays and weekends but advanced notice is best for me. My Urbansitter availability is always up to date so please refer to that if you are interested in booking!
