Hi! I have 30 1/2 years of experience as a Professional Career Nanny seeking employment with a family I can grow with. I also have years of experience as a Household Manager and as a Family/Personal Assistant. As well as a Pre- School Teacher's Assistant/Teacher. I majored in Early Childhood Education while in college. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I am a non smoker. I have had the pleasure working with children from newborns, toddlers, and teens. As well as experience with twins, ADD, ADHD, Aspergers, mild cerebral palsy, autism, and down syndrome. I try to be the best role model for children. I love to get out and explore and encourage active participation, while creating a fun, positive environment. I love helping guide children to be the best them that they can be, to grow emotionally, and influence them to be creative, bright, responsible, kind, and loving young adults. I treat children like they are my own. I am well organized, I can multitask well and I am also motivated and hardworking. I love being silly with kids and having fun with them! I am always open to learning new things. I am compassionate, patient, mature, responsible, and loving. I love organizing, and turning homes into a stress free zone where my employers can find more time for themselves and their family. Thanks so much!

Hi!! My name is Stephany. I am one of 10 children, I being the oldest and the youngest being 9 years old. There are 7 boys and 3 girls. Most of them are in there teens now, but I have personal experience with a different ages. One of my brothers is handicapped and diagnosised being mentally retarded with a behavior disorder, so I also have some experience with disabled children as well. I also have experience babysitting outside of my family. I used to babysit for my really good friend who has 2 children. Also from March 2017 to September 2017 I worked in a day care. I started out working my first two weeks in the toddler room and then moved over to the infant room 1-2 years of age, and finally settling into the baby room working with children 6 weeks to 1year. From 2018-2021 I worked for a family who had 4 children various ages. I would focus on the youngest during the school year and would have all 4 during the summer anywhere between 2-4 times a week. I currently started working with a family in September of 2021. I work with several kids now 2-3 regularly. Most of my toddlers will be starting preschool this year, so I am looking to move to in-home care at my house and bring in 1-2 more families or 1-2 more newborns-toddlers long term!!

I'm a college student attending LCCC currently for my Associates of Nursing. While I don't have professional experience babysitting, I have 2 younger siblings who I've nearly raised as my own kids since they were young. I am CPR and first aid certified. I decided to be a sitter due to my compassion for kids and ability to connect! My abilities also extend beyond sitting to more, such as basic household work (laundry, dishes, etc.), running errands, in addition to having my own car. I am particularly available in the mornings, but have a flexible schedule so feel free to reach out!

I am a Western Governor's University student studying Elementary Education who has multiple experiences with children varying from teaching Sunday school to working at a summer camp to babysitting to nannying for the 2020-2021 school year to being a daycare teacher to being a learning support aid to being a lead teacher in a before and after school program, and to most recently tutoring from elementary through college while also working as a program manager at a before and after school program for Berea City School District. On my journey I have collected books, games, learning materials, and toys for kids. I have worked with special needs and behaviors in the past. Having been in therapy myself I am aware of psycho and physiological strategies for helping one manage their body that I can share with your family. All of my childcare clearances and child cpr and first aid certificates have been renewed as of this year. I love to cook, clean, and organize. I also have experience caring for dogs, rodents, fish, and farm animals so any pets will not scare me. I can play piano, sing, and speak German and am willing to teach these skills to your kids if desired. I am looking for people in need of a date night sitter, childcare for school holidays, homework help/tutoring, and maybe some support in between parents' work shifts. Check out my availability to see if I'm a good fit!
