Stephany L.
- 6 years paid experience

Hi!! My name is Stephany. I am one of 10 children, I being the oldest and the youngest being 9 years old. There are 7 boys and 3 girls. Most of them are in there teens now, but I have personal experience with a different ages. One of my brothers is handicapped and diagnosised being mentally retarded with a behavior disorder, so I also have some experience with disabled children as well. I also have experience babysitting outside of my family. I used to babysit for my really good friend who has 2 children. Also from March 2017 to September 2017 I worked in a day care. I started out working my first two weeks in the toddler room and then moved over to the infant room 1-2 years of age, and finally settling into the baby room working with children 6 weeks to 1year. From 2018-2021 I worked for a family who had 4 children various ages. I would focus on the youngest during the school year and would have all 4 during the summer anywhere between 2-4 times a week. I currently started working with a family in September of 2021. I work with several kids now 2-3 regularly. Most of my toddlers will be starting preschool this year, so I am looking to move to in-home care at my house and bring in 1-2 more families or 1-2 more newborns-toddlers long term!!

Hello, and welcome to my page! I am currently enrolled as an undergraduate student majoring in Inclusive Elementary Education at OWU, and minoring in Zoology. I possess several years of experience babysitting for parents in my neighborhood, family friends, a handful of families on Care.com, and have watched after my three younger siblings during our adolescence. I also obtain a tutoring background, dabbling in both elementary schools and in homes. I love to read, write, draw, play outside, engage in sporting activities, take care of animals, sing and dance, as well as make kiddos laugh. Having fun is essential in my caretaker philosophy, but safety will always remain my first priority. I am trustworthy, dependable, and most importantly, am able to establish trust and rapport with children. I am a safe and licensed driver, and would be happy to run errands or take the kids to the park and elsewhere, if given permission. The sitter role has been an integral aspect of my life as I have learned various ways to manage behavior, observed differing personalities in children, and have dedicated myself to understanding the needs and patterns of kids with special needs; factors including these have been crucial in my ever-growing experience and out-of-classroom education, molding my role as an influential teacher for my future students to depend on. Thank you for your time and consideration, and have a lovely day!

I'm a college student attending LCCC currently for my Associates of Nursing. While I don't have professional experience babysitting, I have 2 younger siblings who I've nearly raised as my own kids since they were young. I am CPR and first aid certified. I decided to be a sitter due to my compassion for kids and ability to connect! My abilities also extend beyond sitting to more, such as basic household work (laundry, dishes, etc.), running errands, in addition to having my own car. I am particularly available in the mornings, but have a flexible schedule so feel free to reach out!

I love being a sitter because interacting with kids and helping them grow is very important to me. I also love being a sitter because I want to help families in need of care, and create a safe and trusting bond with both parent and child. Experience I have is babysitting for my family, as well as working a summer job at the Children's Learning Center at LCCC. I have strong childcare skills, including creating fun and safe activities, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, and maintaining routines like bedtime. I’m trained in CPR and first aid, so I’m prepared for emergencies. I also have experience with conflict resolution, patience, and communication, which helps me connect with kids of different ages.

Was a professional nanny with training in Cleveland after high school I went in to start a family of my own and then watched children in my home for many years. Went back to school to become a LPN, got my certificate from LCC in Lorain County in 2009. I have we fled as a nurse since then but now that my children are grown miss working with children. I have always enjoyed my time working as a babysitter, then nanny, in home care and best of all my own two sons!

I bring approximately one year of professional childcare experience. In addition to caring for my younger sister throughout my upbringing, I have worked in a daycare setting as well as provided in-home childcare for a family several evenings per week. I truly value supporting parents by ensuring their children are safe, and well-cared-for, which allows families peace of mind and the opportunity to take time for themselves. I am certified in CPR and First Aid.
