Barbara M., Child Care in Surprise, NY 12176 with 10 years of paid experience

I truly love being a nanny and sitter because caring for children has always been a natural part of who I am. I find joy in creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids can grow, explore, and feel supported. Every child is unique, and I value the chance to bring out their creativity, confidence, and curiosity through play, learning, and consistency. I have decades of hands-on experience raising my own children as well as working with families in the U.S. and abroad. Over the years, I have cared for children of all ages from newborns and toddlers to school aged kids and teens with an emphasis on patience, positive communication, and encouragement. I understand the balance between structure and fun, and I know how to adapt to each family’s needs.

When out on the farm, trail or in the class room the goal is to insure both environmental safety and fun. I

Patti D., Child Care in Surprise, NY 12176 with 30 years of paid experience

I began babysitter for my neighbors at 12 yrs. Before that I walked babies in their carriages and played with them at the local park. During my first year of college I was a Jr. Sr. High youth group counselor for three combined churches. Then while I attended St. Rose, I spent many hours working with pre-school through 6th grade. After getting my NYS certifications in N-6, English 7-12, business education, and special education, I have taught N through adults and enjoyed them all! At 46, I was blessed to become a mother to my only child, Christopher Raymond. He and I participated in community events, library programs including fantastic summer programs, VBS, and trips I planned to special places like Washington DC & Honolulu, HI. He was an honors student since 3rd grade, graduated with AP and college credits! This us his sophomore year at Marist University. As a teenager I cleaned house but would prefer to take it easy on my back and knees now. I love to bake. My parents were 36 & 40 yrs old when my twin brother & I were born. They allowed my older brothers to name us. When we were older they taught us to swim, ice skate, build snow forts, drive a small motorcycle and then drive a car with a standard. My middle brother & his wife taught college and high school math so prepared us for math Regents. We also went camping with them in the Finger Lakes.
