Hello Moms & Dads :)- Please take a moment to read all 🌹 A little about me. My name is Stephanie, born & raised in NYC. I was studying law in college when I ended up having my child and realized my passion laid with children and decided to pursue a degree in childhood education instead. Throughout the last 20 years as a teacher and managing services for children with developmental disabilities in the department of health and department of education I have worked as a nanny.on the side for supplemental income. I have extensive experience with premature infants up to middle school children and with children on the spectrum, with ADHD or speech delays. I am well versed in the milestones a child should achieve and as a caregiver I implement age appropriate goals to make sure that I work with each child on all their domains of development including their cognitive, sociall, language, academic (if applicable) and physical; although safety is always my #1 priority. Working with children requires patience, empathy, being passionate about it and understanding that every child is different in their own way. I believe that good communication between parents and all caregivers is essential so that everyone is on the same page. As a mom myself I understand how difficult it can be specially for first time parents to separate from their child and feel like they are "missing out" or having a sense of guilt kick in and I'm here to make the process easier and provide ease. For parents with multiple children struggling to find alone or couple time, I am there to insure your mind is at ease with regards to your children’s care while you get some much needed girl/self/couples time. I am CPR certified and update it every 2 years. I am a non smoker. I don't do corporal punishment hence I am not a good fit with parents that do.. love pets 🐶🐱 Best of luck to everyone in their search 🌸🌸Note: I homeschool my teen who will more often than not come with me and be doing his school work on the computer for the most part. This hasn’t been an issue in the past as can be seen by my reviews but completely understand the parents who are not comfortable despite the transparency. 🌸🌸 I only work part time positions (mainly weekdays) as stated above as I work independently with the DOH and DOE. "If a child does not learn the way we teach, perhaps we should teach the way they learn”

I have been babysitting children since eighth grade when I was first trusted to look after my younger brother when my parents had to go out to a business functions. Since then I have always babysat either during the mornings and evenings for different families and if they happened to have a dog to walk/feed or any other pet to take care of I would gladly perform that task as I have a natural love and respect for animals. Although babysitting is a part time endeavor for me, I take this task just as seriously as my main career as a chess program director/chess instructor. I am comfortable performing many different household tasks such as cooking and cleaning and one of my strengths as a babysitter is being able to engage children in intellectual related endeavors such as reading, writing and art and helping them with their homework if necessary. I also know how to play many different boardgames such as Risk, Stratego, Connect Four, Chess and am very open minded when it comes to engaging myself in the hobbies that your child prefers to engage in.
