Find experienced nannies in Haledon, NJ

Hello, My name is Kimberly Garcia. I was born in the Bronx and raised in Yonkers. I attended Lincoln High School in Yonkers, NY. Upon graduation I attended Berkeley College for Criminal Justice. While attending Berkeley, I began my first job as an assistant teacher at a home day-care. As I worked and attended school, I began to have a true appreciation for teachers and wanted to pursue the field of education. I was given another teaching opportunity to work with children ranging from 6 weeks old to 12 years of age- this was a defining moment for me, as I realized Early Childhood was the career path I wanted to be vested and passionate in pursuing. As I complete my degree in Criminal Justice, I will further my education in Early Childhood Education.I have 5 + years of experience with child care, I have experience in both nanny home settings and lead teacher in centers. I currently hold 12 certificates, CPR & first aid certification and my CDA with a concentration in infants/toddlers. It is truly amazing to witness a child’s growth and to know I had an impact on that growth. Working with families and children truly allows me to be hands-on and dedicated to what I love doing on a daily basis. I want to ensure that all parties – child and family, gets the best experience with me. -Fluent in English and Spanish - DOI FINGERPRINTED - • Early childhood education and training certificates • CPR and First aid certification • Mandated Reporter Certification • Preventing Shaken Baby Syndrome certification • Keeping Children Safe: Prevention of Lead Poisoning and Other Dangers to Children certification • Preventing Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and Promoting Safe Sleeping certification • Managing Challenging Behavior: Birth to 18 Months certification • Transportation certification • Early Intervention certification • Family Engagement certification • Emergency Preparedness certification • Obesity Prevention certification • Supervision of Children certification • School Age Child Care certification • Preventing Shaken Baby Syndrome certification • Infant Brain Development certification • Managing Challenging Behavior: 18 months to 36 months certification - references

Hello Moms & Dads :)- Please take a moment to read all 🌹 My availability is 7am-5/6pm M-Th. Friday mornings and an occasional evening for date nights, as nights and weekends is dedicated to my child/family. A little about me. My name is Stephanie, born & raised in NYC. I was studying law in college when I ended up having my child and realized my passion laid with children and decided to pursue a degree in childhood education instead. Throughout the last 20 years as a teacher and managing services for children with developmental disabilities in the department of health and department of education I have worked as a nanny.on the side for supplemental income. I have extensive experience with premature infants up to middle school children and with children on the spectrum, with ADHD or speech delays. I am well versed in the milestones a child should achieve and as a caregiver I implement age appropriate goals to make sure that I work with each child on all their domains of development including their cognitive, sociall, language, academic (if applicable) and physical; although safety is always my #1 priority. Working with children requires patience, empathy, being passionate about it and understanding that every child is different in their own way. I believe that good communication between parents and all caregivers is essential so that everyone is on the same page. As a mom myself I understand how difficult it can be specially for first time parents to separate from their child and feel like they are "missing out" or having a sense of guilt kick in and I'm here to make the process easier and provide ease. For parents with multiple children struggling to find alone or couple time, I am there to insure your mind is at ease with regards to your children’s care while you get some much needed girl/self/couples time. I am CPR certified and update it every 2 years. I am a non smoker. I don't do corporal punishment hence I am not a good fit with parents that do.. love pets 🐶🐱 Best of luck to everyone in their search 🌸🌸Note: I homeschool my teen who will more often than not come with me and be doing his school work on the computer for the most part. This hasn’t been an issue in the past as can be seen by my reviews but completely understand the parents who are not comfortable despite the transparency. 🌸🌸 I only work part time positions (mainly weekdays) as stated above as I work independently with the DOH and DOE.
