Find experienced child care providers in Valatie, NY

Hello. My name is Brenda and I live in East Greenbush. I am looking for an opportunity as an educational aide/tutor or to provide child care. My experience includes providing child care and tutoring for many families. I also worked with HVCC students at the Disability Services Center for one year after college. My duties included helping students who needed special accommodations or assistance to take tests and exams. I am a responsible, easygoing, and positive person who enjoys spending time with children and watching them learn and grow. When I visit my family, I spend a lot of quality time with my young niece and nephews. They never want me to leave, which makes me happy and sad. If you think I would be a good match for your family, feel free to contact me.

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 am a 43r old mother of 3 and reside in Delmar, NY. My children are 18, 15, and 12yrs old. I've been sitting since I was 11yrs old. I was lucky to be a stay at home mom from Feb 2000 until 2013. In 2013, I took a part time job working at Elsmere Elementary as a one on one noon aide/who took care of some IEP students and also filled in subbing where the school needed me. I left the school at the end of the school year in 2016 to take on a 5day week babysitting job for a teacher, since my youngest was going to middle school and I could do something full time. I am currently babysitting for a teacher from Hamagrael at her home for her three children which are now 2 1/2, almost 4, and 6yrs old. They will all be going to preschool/school in fall so I am looking to secure a job with another family. Sitting for teachers is ideal for me because I like to be with my children over the school breaks. I love kids and enjoy being able to take them to town park pool, lakes, different playgrounds, the movies, and the library. I am looking for either a summer job or a year round with school breaks off, and time off as needed. One which would allow me to drive with children to and from places on occasion, and that is flexible enough that I can still take my children to an occasional orthodontist visit and drop my son off at baseball camp and such would be great. I do already have my vacation planned for July 28th-August 4th. I also am unavailable from June 22nd-July 3rd for my oldests graduation and a medical treatment for one of my children at Boston Childrens Hospital , in addition to August 17th-20th because I have to drop oldest at college. My kids school breaks/days off for this coming school year are September 3, 10, 19. October 8th. November 12. November 21-23. December 24-Jan1st. January 21st. February 18th-22. April 19th-26. May 27th.

Hi! My name is Shayla! I'm 20 years old and have about 4 years of experience working with children, including time in an after-school program! I live in Columbia County, I'm CPR and BLS certified, and will have an Associate's degree in Arts and Science this May! I also will be starting nursing school this fall! I currently work as a Patient Care Technician on a Mother-Baby unit, so caring for infants and supporting families is something I'm very familiar with!
