A little bit about me

I grew up in a home with many infants/toddlers all my life. Taking care of kids have been a big experience in my upbringing. Due to the history of babysitting in my family, I started to enjoy it more and gain more experience the past 7-8 years with kids outside of my family. Even today, I have plenty of references to share. I enjoy watching children grow - mentally, physically, and emotionally in this world. Love being apart of helping parents out when needed.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Stephanie and I would love to help out your family!
Previously I nannied for a family in Uptown for three and a half years, but they moved at the end of last year and I have been working temporary nanny jobs since then. I have over 15 years of childcare behind me. I babysat on my own for several years growing up, and for the past 10 years have been working for an agency in the city. I have experience in all ages, but infants and newborns are my favorite. I am a huge fan of gentle/authoritative parenting and believe a happy child comes from communication and treating your little one as human while still setting boundaries and guiding them in the right direction. My biggest goal is to keep your kid(s) happy, healthy, and having fun. I love going for walks, listening and dancing to music together, and chatting the day away with babies, all while maintaining a structured routine. Please reach out if you think we'd be a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!
