Maria  L., Child Care in East Flat Rock, NC 28726 with 1 year of paid experience

The care of children has always been close to my heart. I grew up taking care of my younger siblings, which taught me patience, love, and the importance of creating a safe and happy environment for them. To be even more prepared for this experience, I am currently studying early childhood education so I can provide the best care and support for your little ones. I love connecting with children through creative and fun activities, whether it’s doing crafts, playing outside, telling stories, or simply helping with their daily routines. My goal is to make every moment special, helping them learn and grow while feeling loved and understood. Responsibility, punctuality, and organization are qualities that define me, and I always bring a positive and warm attitude to everything I do. I can also help with some household tasks to make your daily life easier. My experience with children has been very special and enriching. During my social service, I had the opportunity to care for and support several children in an after-school center. I helped them with their homework, played with them, and assisted during mealtimes. Some of them had particular needs, such as a child with ADHD, another with a slower learning process due to a learning disorder, and a girl on the autism spectrum. With each of them, I learned the importance of empathy, patience, and understanding, always adapting to their way of seeing the world and making sure they felt supported and listened to.

Melinda P., Child Care in East Flat Rock, NC 28726 with 30 years of paid experience

I’m a retired science teacher/outdoor educator with 30 years experience working with children. I retired in January and would like to continue to work/teach kids. Most recently, I was an Aquatic Educator for the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission and have been running an afterschool fishing club for kids in grades 3-8 and have been teaching families with children ages 5 & up how to fish. I have a BS in Biology and was Certified to teach Middle Grades and High School Science and I have a Master’s Degree in Education with the concentration in science. I taught in public schools and private schools and then started the education programs at the Pisgah Center for Wildlife Education for preK & up where I continued to work with outdoor education for kids until the flood in 2021. I have experience babysitting siblings, keeping them safe and engaged in activities, preparing snacks/meals, putting them down for nap/bed. I have done after school pick ups as well as driven kids to activities. I am good with pets. I have a dog and have kept one of my client’s dogs when they went out of town. I have had background checks and been fingerprinted in previous employment. I am 1st Aid and CPR certified. I have also raised my own child so I have experience with babies. Most evenings I have available as well as the weekend and my day shift availability jumps around a little so I would just need to coordinate schedules. So, contact me if you need a date night sitter or part time hours. (I am currently sitting 4 mornings for a family that has a 2 yr old and a 9 month old. So, I am looking for date night babysitting.)
