A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Stephanie, and working with children has always been a true passion of mine. I’ve spent years working in after-school programs, summer camps, and as a teacher with children ages 3–6. I bring a creative, patient, and engaging approach to every babysitting job, whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, or winding down for bedtime.

Parents often describe me as dependable, nurturing, and someone their kids genuinely love spending time with. I’m CPR/First Aid trained, experienced with routines, meal prep, and helping with schoolwork—and I always show up with a positive attitude (and usually a fun activity planned!).

If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your kids like her own and creates a safe, happy environment for them to thrive in, I’d love to connect!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Teri Goshert
I have just retired from HELPING HANDS DAY-CARE as a pre kindergarten teacher for 24 years. Before that I had an interview home daycare for 10 years.
At the present time I am taking care of my quadriplegic daughter through TEMPUS UNLIMITED.
I would love to stay with this job, but the lifting and other things I need to do are becoming to physical. (Lifting,turning, etc )
It saddens me that I can not keep doing this job, but she understands and already has a replacement for me.
I love God, children, music, creativity, animal, sunsets, and especially my soon to be 13 year old Granddaughter Hailey, and both my daughters, Sarah 37, my oldest
Stephanie, 35, my youngest . Family is everything! I have a huge family and we are all very close.
