Kim A., Babysitter in New River, AZ 85087 with 22 years of paid experience

I’m a 52 yr old mother with 2 wonderful children my son is 24, and my daughter is 21, and my husband and I have been married for 24 yrs. Like every other little girl I started babysitting for neighbors, and my church family. I really enjoyed it so I decided to take the Blue Cross/Blue Shield baby-sitting course. While I was in high school I worked for daycare centers. After graduation I went back to school to get my nurses licenses. I worked with geriatrics patients.(elderly) and was going to school to be a nurse, plans changed and I got married and moved to Germany (Army) and started having children of my own I then started my in-home child care of 24 years. I have been a Nanny for one of the little girls from my daycare for 6 years 😥 long story short she is extremely sick in Children's Hospital. I'm reopening a very small nanny like in home childcare with no more than 3/4 younger kids/babies that way they recieve more 1 on 1 time with the interaction of a few other babies. I will be available for drop-in, part-time care and possibly more. I will play with play-doh, color, draw with sidewalk chalk, ABC's, 123's, and read age appropriate books. Naps will be scheduled. Naps aren't required, but quiet time is. I will try to get to the park in the spring/fall. We'll have water activities during the summer to stay cool. All the fun stuff I do with the children is great, but the most important thing I can tell you is I'm a mother, and I know what it means to love a child, and to want them to always be safe, and feel loved. If this sounds like what your family is looking for please contact me so we can set up a time to meet. Look forward to meeting your family. 6 2 3 52 3 2 7o 2 References available

Sherri N., Babysitter in New River, AZ 85087 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi there. I have been excited about Sitting for children since I was 12. I’m mature and a mother of two wonderful, grown sons. I’ve worked in a private preschool, public schools and volunteered helping with children of all ages. I’m a “Fun Maker” of almost anything and I truly enjoy children. I have a medical background and references from families I’ve cared over 30 years. October 2022 Dear Family, I am recommending Sherri Newman for the nanny position with your family. Sherri was with us, and took exceptional care of our firstborn son from May - October 2022. When we began exploring options for in home care for our son I became very concerned at the lack of responsible candidates in this field. Sherri however was a breath of fresh air even prior to day one. She was professional, responsive, polite, friendly & genuine. Sherri interacted so gently, energetically and honestly with our son and she was an instant hit with him. Soon after Sherri started working with our family our son would light up with excitement and reach for her when she came in, in the mornings. It gave us invaluable peace of mind that our baby was connecting so well with his caregiver. Originally, we hired Sherri with the understanding that we would only need her services for four months. I planned to return to my job for only one trime FROM THE DESK OF The Smith Family ster after maternity leave to tie up some loose ends. However, Sherri made things easier than expected for our family so I was able to extend my employment through the end of the year. We are now only parting ways as I plan to close out the remainder of the year with accrued vacation time and PTO and will now be able to stay home with our family. During her time with us Sherri went above and beyond for our family. She cleaned our home and did laundry when our sons naps permitted. She stayed later when needed. She even brought him books and toys that she knew would help with advancing his development. Our family felt like we truly lucked out to have Sherri take care of our son. Moreover, we felt like she became a part of our family in a short while. Someone is going to luck out to have Sherri oversee their children. If we had to do it all over again, we would love to have Sherri be our sons nanny. Thank you, The Smith Family
