Meet Stephanie
- Comfortable with pets
Hi! My name is Stephanie and I've been around kids (and pets) as long as I can remember. I have an older sister, and when I was about five years old, my mother decided to stop teaching high school and become a stay-at-home mom, but with a daycare in our home! So I've been helping with kids ever since then. I started babysitting when I was about 11 or so, and by the time I was 15, I was nannying for local families so I could help pay expenses for my horse. I've been fortunate enough to travel with these wonderful families to places like Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket,and Aspen. Even through college and other jobs, I continued to watch children. In the fall of 2009, I made a life change to move in with my sister to spend time with her and her family outside of Seattle. While there, I Read more started working for a dual-military family - the mother was in the Air Force while the father is in the Army. After a year of being a daytime babysitter, I moved in with the family when they got military orders to move to North Carolina. We spent three years there before moving to Virginia for four years before arriving here in Charleston two-and-a-half years ago. The mother just retired from the Air Force in January, and the father will be retiring in October so I no longer live with them, but I still do watch the child and dog upon occasion. I'm a pretty even-tempered person who enjoys nature, sports, music, and having fun with the kids. I like visiting parks, museums, community events, and all sorts of places so that we don't get stuck in a rut and I feel it keeps things interesting. I listen to kids and try to explain the reason behind rules so that they feel like they're involved in making them and understand why things are the way they are. I also try to make sure they understand what is expected of them and when so they're not thrown for loop when things change.
