Marie M., Child Care in Furlong, PA 18925 with 23 years of paid experience

Hi! My Name is Marie. I have over twenty years childcare experience, and am thirty nine years old. I love taking care of children of all ages and interacting with them, assisting them with using manners, and also love helping school-age children with homework. In addition I truly love caring for infants, as it is amazing to watch how their personalities expand on a daily basis! I have extensive training in the recognition, as well as treatment of life threatening injuries and illnesses in infants, children, and adults. I have wonderful references to give during an interview. I do not post my references on the internet because I would prefer to not have them receiving many phone calls before I even meet a family as a courtesy to them as it became problematic before. I am able to bring all certifications with me during an interview, and will also provide my references' contact information. I also have current clear background checks from the FBI (with fingerprints) and the state of Pennsylvania, and have passed the requirements of Pennsylvania to obtain a child abuse history clearance in order to be approved to work around children in a school setting. As far as discipline in a caregiver capacity goes I believe in time-outs, or time-outs for toys. I also strongly believe in positive reinforcement (sticker chart with prize at end of week, pick of dinner or activity etc) I like to try and mimic the parents' way of doing things as best as possible to keep structure in childrens lives, and also try and cater to the activities the specific child likes most (after any room-cleaning/homework if any they’re required to do is done). I am a former critical care medic so have extensive CPR and first aide training and experience. I have a 13 year old son in 8th grade, a 7 year old daughter in second grade and am a stay at home mom. I am highly involved in my kids schools as a teacher aide as needed. I am currently looking for occasional daytime or date night positions **ineligibility for SC enhanced background badge was due to a non-moving traffic citation. I have all other clear federal and state background checks I can provide**

Marie, Mariah has asked for you to come back! This is high praise from a child who doesn't generally like people she hasn't met before! I hope you'll consider watching the whole gang for me occasionally. Best wishes, Kristen V.

Simone is an exceptional caregiver — warm, loving, and deeply attentive to the children in her care. She began looking after our daughter when she was just 4 months old, and from the very start she showed a natural ability to engage, nurture, and bond with her. Our toddler son adores her just as much. She was always reliable, punctual, and even helped keep the house organized — which as any parent knows, is a lifesaver. We are going to miss her so, so much. She became a part of our family, and whoever is lucky enough to have her next is in truly wonderful hands. We recommend her without any hesitation! ❤️

Hi! My name is Jordan, and I’m 26 years old. I’ve grown up around childcare my whole life, so it's fitting that it is becoming my career. I have my own vehicle, I can cook and bake pretty well, and arts and crafts is a happy hobby of mine. I’m an athlete, so I love going out and playing. Babysitting is awesome, and I want to leave every kid with a good moment, time, or even memory. Currently I have about four part time families I am working with, and I am looking to fill in the gaps. I can be here for a longer commitment, or a one day event. Either way, I would love to hear from you! Please reach out to connect!

We can’t say enough good things about Jordan. We came into town for a wedding and we were nervous about how our 4 year old son would respond to a new sitter. Jordan FaceTimed with us beforehand so our son would feel more comfortable, and met up with us the day before with stickers she knew our son would love. The day of the wedding not only was she incredibly flexible but she also came a treasure trove of toys, art supplies and games. She helped us feel comfortable and made our son feel safe. At the end of the night she even picked all our stuff and brought it from the venue to our hotel without us asking. Above and beyond in every way. Can’t recommend her enough.

Hey everyone. I have a ton of experience love animals and children of all ages I do prefer to begin with younger children(infants, preschoolers and s hool aged children) it's fun however, with my patience, humor and common sense I can handle anything. So ready to take care of your children I took some time off due to a position ending and now I want to return. I miss my daily routine, reading, being outdoors, learning activities, going for walks, tummy time (if infant), games, puzzles and interactive play. I love to laugh have fun and mix it up with learning activities. I am reliable, have a clean background on file and cpr first aid certified, tdap, flu and I'm vacinated for covid. Please reach out if this interests you. Thanks for reading! Also, I have a reliable car..

Charlene Maguire did a wonderfully, flawless job of taking care of my twins Michael and Jenna. Age 4. She was a part of our family from October 2012 to January 2014. Her hours varied in that time but she never failed to impress. She was flexible, etremely active, she was engaging at learning through play, she did everything I needed and exceeded expectation. Her duties included, transportation to and from school, meal prep, house cleaning. I would highly recommend her as a Professional Nanny to be a part of your family.

Hello, my name is Jenn and I'm a 52 year old mom with lots of childcare experience. I'm fun, caring, compassionate, easy going, responsible, and reliable. I absolutely adore children of all ages and have cared for newborns to school age children. I like to teach through playing and help kids reach their age appropriate milestones. I've worked with special needs in the past. And I've helped with speech delays. I know baby, children, and adult CPR although last certified in 2020. I'm extremely clean and always tidying up. I cook very well also! I'd prefer hours around 8am-4pm but I'm absolutely flexible. I'm with a wonderful family I've been with for a little over 2 years. I've been blessed with loving and caring for a 2.5 yr old and 10 month old, but mom has been blessed and leaving work to stay home with kiddos. So with a broken heart I'm available mid March.

America L., Child Care in Furlong, PA 18925 with 18 years of paid experience

Hello there! As a mother of 2 I have firsthand experience of what is to raise great kids in challenging circumstances. With over 15 years of experience as a nanny and occasional sitter, I feel so proud and I am so happy to still be in close contact with some of my "little ones" that are now graduating high school and even college! I got trained in 5 different Evidence Based Prevention Programs that I was able to facilitate too for the past several years. I have been helping parents-caregivers and youth to grow together as a family by supporting each other goals with love and limits. My passion is to help children reach their whole potential in their different developmental stages. I have all my clearances and trained in CPR and First Aid. Hopefully, we get the chance to meet in the flesh so you can know more about me. I am ready to go back to this fulfilling and meaningful career. For the past couple years, I used to teach Spanish to several kids in your children's age. Sadly, I could not say goodbye to my kiddos since everything closed -as you know. I was also working as a substitute staff support in North Penn School District, but that also came to a sudden ending, last March. Since I do not think the schools will come back as before, I am considering go back to the nanny/sitter position again. I have many years of experience working with kids and parents, since I also became a certified Parenting Coach. As you can see, I am a responsible, trustworthy adult. I am afraid that for now, I am only available for -Sporadic- sitter jobs including sporadic weekend’s overnight care since I work Mon-Fri from 8 to until 3 30 pm. Thank you for your time. Keep safe.

America worked with our family last summer. Our twins were 12 and entering 6th grade at the time. She was absolutely incredible. She provided consistent structure for the kids as well as a lot of fun. She's an amazing cook too! Any family that hires America will be a very lucky one. We're happy to provide a reference via phone or email for America. -Laura & Mike
