Cara L., Child Care in Westfield, IN 46074 with 30 years of paid experience

Hi! I am a person who finds caring for children enriching and rewarding. Since my children are now 23 and 21, I have more free time on weekends and eveings and I miss having the energy and spirit of young children in my life. I am certified in CPR and first aid. I have a college degree in Psychology and Social Work with a Spanish minor. I am one of those people who genuinely enjoys interacting with young children. It uplifts my spirit and makes me smile. Their vivacity and curiosity energizes me and brings out my playful, silly side. I am also skilled at directing children, guiding them towards making good choices, and being a stern authority figure when needed. I have a professional 8am-5pm job so I am available nights and weekends. I know that most professional adults do not babysit on the side, but I enjoy children so much that I would happily spend my free time doing something that I find rewarding and that helps another family. My office job is not too taxing and I still have plenty of energy in the evening. Plus I look forward to getting to interact and play with kids and it's often one of the highlights of my week, so that is a boost! I have a lot of skill and experience working with kids. I babysat regularly from the age of 12 through my college years. I raised 2 wonderful children. I've taught weekly classes for preschoolers and homeschoolers ages 5-12. I've led girl scout troops, coached soccer, volunteered in classrooms, led children's parties and events, volunteered as a tutor in homeless centers, served as PTO president and room parent, cofounded and led a homeschool group, and cared for children in the foster care system. I also babysat and nannied part-time when I was a stay at home mom. My friends knew I was great with kids and my children were very well behaved so some of my days were spent caring for friends' children in addition to my own. Besides enjoying kids I am also looking for more income to contribute to my kids' college tuitions and my daily expenses. I'm willing to consider babysitting overnight or unusual hours. I have background check results available upon request. (Sittercity only displays the badge if you pay to run a new check every 3 months.) If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me!

Annie H., Child Care in Westfield, IN 46074 with 8 years of paid experience

Hello, families! My name is Annie, and I'm an art educator with a passion for childcare. I have 8 years of experience working with children of all ages. While my background is teaching K-12 visual arts, I specialize in early childhood education. After obtaining a Bachelors in art education, I spent time at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis as well as the Indiana State Museum, becoming familiar with the Reggio Emilia approach. In addition, I spent a year at a Montessori school as the aftercare classroom lead. During this time, I was able to continue my education with a Montessori Primary course. I currently hold CPR, First Aid, Pre-Art Therapy, and AMI Montessori 3-6 certifications. While working with families, I collaborate with parents to practice gentle parenting, focusing on setting boundaries, understanding natural consequences, and giving children the comfort, support, and respect they need to strengthen emotional intelligence and hit developmental milestones. I enjoy planning activities and playdates at museums, libraries, nature centers, parks, playgrounds, etc. for the children in my care. While working with children, I love to spend time in nature, which helps to regulate the nervous system, and practice fine and gross motor skills. My current professional goals are to learn baby sign language and continue to discover children's literature.
