Anya S., Babysitter in Rensselaer, NY 12144 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello there! My name is Anya and I am here to help lighten your load, helping to make your busy schedule a little easier. I'm energetic, responsible, reliable, kind, compassionate, and caring. I have always loved and enjoyed working with children. My experience starts when I was 13 watching not only my niece but my mom’s friends kids. When I turned 17 I started working for the YMCA at an after school program, I worked with the YMCA for 2 years till they unfortunately closed due to the pandemic. During the pandemic I went to school for childhood education. I worked as teaching assistant which included my 7 years of working experience with children. I most recently was a nanny for a family who had an 8 month old and was with them for almost two years. It is something I love to do and am passionate about. Not only do I love caring for children, but I also love helping with things that need to be done around the house. I am willing to help out in anyway I can to make things easier for you and your family.

Hi, My name is Hannah. I'm a retired Special Ed teacher, babysitter (14 years), and mom to four amazing adult children.I have been working with children (birth -18 ) for 25+ year via professional and volunteer jobs. I am energetic, creative , crafty and love the outdoors. With my children grown and out of the house I'm looking for a way to earn a little extra money while doing the thing I love. I'm confident, fun and love the outdoors. I do think kids are kids, but it's up to adults to teach them to respect others, nature, and the world around them. My passion is watching and teaching children about the world around us. I'd like to talk to you about this position. Thank you Hannah Shuman
