Find experienced child care providers in Valatie, NY

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.

I have 10+ years of experience caring for children and have nannied for multiple families with infants. I have worked in childcare centers for many years, teaching children ages 6 weeks-12 years, where I have been both an Assistant Infant Teacher and a Lead Toddler Teacher. I also have worked extensively in the animal welfare field and am completely comfortable with any pets in the home. Through pursuing my Infant/Toddler CDA Credential, I have been CPR/First Aid certified. I'm open to either a full or part time position and have references available. If you have any questions feel free to send me a message!

Hi, My name is Hannah. I'm a retired Special Ed teacher, babysitter (14 years), and mom to four amazing adult children.I have been working with children (birth -18 ) for 25+ year via professional and volunteer jobs. I am energetic, creative , crafty and love the outdoors. With my children grown and out of the house I'm looking for a way to earn a little extra money while doing the thing I love. I'm confident, fun and love the outdoors. I do think kids are kids, but it's up to adults to teach them to respect others, nature, and the world around them. My passion is watching and teaching children about the world around us. I'd like to talk to you about this position. Thank you Hannah Shuman

Hello! I love children and I have been told time and time again that I have a natural talent when it comes to working with them. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years of age. I have had the pleasure of babysitting some amazing children, and I love being able to watch them grow up. There is particular child that I actually have had the pleasure of seeing her grow up from just a few months old! During the winter seasons in high school I worked at a ski resort and taught children between the ages of 4-5, basic ski skills. Since then I have worked in daycare and continuous babysitting! I look forward to connecting with you!

I am dedicated to helping nurture the next generation. Connecting to the land is essential for children learning to ground and regulate as well as to feel joy, safety, and centeredness in their bodies. My bachelor’s degree is in Environmental Education, and I have worked in a variety of related professional settings from residential outdoor education programs to state parks to sustainable farming camps. I hold my Permaculture Design Certificate and am currently training as a clinical herbalist. I enjoy organic gardening and foraging as well as cooking and food preservation. I love to get kids involved with these skills and to help them live into a rhythm of seasonality. Not only fun, these activities are also a way to introduce important ecological and natural history concepts. I personally support outdoor free play whenever it’s safe and feasible, even (especially!) in the wintertime. I encourage kids in developing autonomy along with body and emotional awareness. I also promote creative expression through the use of natural and recycled materials in artistry and craft. I am primarily a stay-at-home-mother, so depending on scheduling, my three-and-a-half-year-old son may come along with me for babysitting.
