A little bit about me

My name is Stephanie but most little angels call me Stephie. I have worked with special needs kiddos for about 21 years. Working with these beautiful souls is truly my passion and I am so lucky to have found something I love so immensely! I am a very positive, energetic, loving, reliable, patient, flexible, hard working, and open minded person. I started out doing ABA when I was 20 years old. Since then I've worked in school settings as well as doing residential work/nanny/life skills. I've also worked with kiddos who are medically complex, more specifically CHARGE Syndrome. I have experience with tube feeding and BAHA listening devices as well. I believe in finding ways to truly connect with each individual child and to always see them for who they are and not just their diagnosis.

"Stephanie made a quick connection with my children. Her energetic, fun, caring personality drew my children to her instantly. I always trusted they were being well cared for when with Stephanie. They were happy and excited when they knew she was coming. My son was very late to talk. Because of that, he could become very frustrated when trying to communicate his needs and wants. Stephanie had an immense amount of patience and compassion when working with him. She soon became one of his favorite people, quickly becoming an important part of his team - helping him learn others ways of communicating until he found his voice. My children were actively engaged, happy and loved when with Stephanie. She took them to parks, to the library, and the Zoo. At home - they would paint, build, read books, complete puzzles, etc. Her positive enthusiasm made everything they did fun! Stephanie was an important part of my children’s childhood, even after moving Stephanie has remained in contact them."

Hello!
My name is Abi, and in May 2026 I graduated from Saint Louis University's Chaifetz School of Business with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing and a Minor in International Business.
While I have a professional background in marketing and leadership, one of the most rewarding parts of my experience has been caring for children. For more than three years, I have provided dependable, attentive childcare for children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to school-aged children and teenagers.
I am patient, responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy building positive relationships with children and their families. Outside of work, I love baking, reading, watching movies, spending time outdoors, and making memories with my friends and family.

I love children. I was a stay at home Mom while my 31 and 32 yr. old sons were little. I then taught pre-kindergarden when they were in school all day. I also coached track and volleyball for their school, as well as Sunday school two times a month. Working with children is a gift I have been given and would love to work with your children. Thank you🌷

Babysitter Available in St. Louis, MO: Hannah C.

I am a junior nursing major at Saint Louis University from KC. I have been taking care of kids since high school as it was my first job. I am able to help with homework, keeping the house tidy, meal prep, and entertaining the kids. I want to become a NICU or peds nurse so sticking with babysitting is good for me as well as having that flexible schedule with my schooling.
