Rebecca S., Child Care in Cocoa, FL 32927 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Rebecca, and I am an experienced caregiver with a diverse background in working with children of all abilities. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Special Education with a minor in American Sign Language, as well as professional teaching certificates in Florida and New Jersey in Elementary Education, Special Education, English as a Second Language, and for children ages Birth-4. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. With 4 years of experience as a classroom teacher for children ages 3-5 with autism and developmental delays, I have developed strong skills in providing individualized support and fostering a positive, nurturing environment. In addition to my teaching experience, I have spent 5 years as a tutor and 1 year as a respite care provider for teens with special needs. I have been providing childcare since I was 13, gaining experience that has helped me become proficient in caring for children of all ages. As an aunt to five nieces and nephews under 3, I am also regularly caring for young children, which helps me stay grounded in the everyday needs and joys of family life. Currently, I am taking a break from full-time teaching to explore travel opportunities and am available for various childcare services including regular nannying, babysitting, tutoring, homeschool help, special needs care, pet sitting, dog sitting, house sitting, and sick care. I also offer vacation babysitting for trips to Orlando or Cocoa Beach, as well as date-night sitting. If you're in need of overnight care, please reach out, and I will do my best to accommodate your needs. I am based in the Merritt Island area but am happy to travel up to 50 miles for your convenience. For distances beyond 20 miles, I do require a contribution for gas. My rate is $22–40 per hour, depending on the number of children and the task (babysitting, tutoring, overnight care, sick care, etc.). I look forward to hearing from you and providing reliable care for your family! Available for: Regular Nannying/Babysitting Tutoring/Homework Help Special Needs Care Sick Care Respite Care for Families Pet Sitting/Dog Sitting House Sitting Vacation Care (Orlando/Cocoa Beach) Feel free to contact me with any questions or to discuss your specific needs!

Natalie U., Child Care in Cocoa, FL 32927 with 4 years of paid experience

I have child care experience in nannying, babysitting, and preschool and have worked with children aged 6 months-5 years. I currently attend UCF where I am in my final year earning a B.S. in Early Childhood Development and Education. I also possess a Florida Child Care Staff Credential awarded through DCF. Additional to my CPR and first aid certifications, I have individualized experience working with children with severe food allergies, as well as previous kitchen and customer service work. I am truly passionate about early childcare, I stay active in my personal time and enjoy playing with children outside and helping them get dirty under the Florida sunshine! I understand the importance of exposure to nature, as well as the sensorial benefits of outdoor play and exploration. Early exposure to reading, literacy, and phonics is also crucial for this age range- I put a large emphasis on fun and engaging ways to help children learn the many different phonemes as well as print awareness. I may be a great fit for your family if you are looking for someone to: - Expose your child to various environments (parks, beaches, libraries, small groups) - Set an example of healthy practices such as nutrition and an active lifestyle - Help with chores around the house or run errands - Give undivided, individual attention to your little one - Have a flexible schedule open to change
