A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Erin; a very energetic, reliable, patient, & creative person with a true passion for working with kids! I was a private nanny to 2 sweet children for 5 years in CA, while also working at my local church with all age groups: neurotypical, neurodivergent & children with advanced needs (0-14 years) while taking on other babysitting jobs. I was then a teacher of 18-24 month olds before returning to nannying a 15 month old boy for a year before my husband & I PCSed away & had our daughter. I love creating new ways to have fun with the kids while developing a strong relationship with both them & you as their parents!

With me, your children will receive appropriate, interactive care! I'm also happy to do any other tasks you'd like done when asked. Personally, I enjoy being involved with the kids rather than supervising from afar & do so while taking all safety measures necessary. That being said, I hope I'm able to provide a safe, stable & loving environment for your pride & joys:)

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I was a preschool teacher to 18-24 month olds for a bit, before leaving to return to the world of private childcare!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Honestly to me the most important part is loving these kids like they’re my own and helping to make an impact in their lives. That could be something they remember or not, but knowing I was able to help them feel safe and loved while helping them grow in some way will always be what stands out to me.

My experience with special needs children...

I’ve worked with a fairly wide range of children who are either neurodivergent, have physical disabilities or both! Though my most extensive experience has been with children on the autism spectrum:)

Babysitter Available in Palmer, AK: Elizabeth M.

Hello, my name is Beth but I like to be addressed as Miss Beth to my little charges. I have worked with or volunteered to work with children since I was in junior high ( a long time ago). I love children of all ages and abilities, working in schools as a para educator, a QIDP for Medicaid, a Habilitation Interventionist and a Behavior Interventionist for special needs children. I’m more of a grandma type but with that comes experience and wisdom. I follow CHELP practices, my own acronym.

Storytelling is a favorite pastime and making chores or homework into a game is a frequent practice. Staying within family guidelines and rules are a “must” for me. I approach my employment as a sacred trust. Children are your most precious possessions and I do not take that responsibility lightly. I would love to speak with you about this possible partnership and adventure.

Hello! I am currently a student at UAA in the Dental Hygiene program. I have extensive experience working with children, including over a year as a dental assistant in a pediatric office. Working closely with kids has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to create a fun and comfortable environment.
I am seeking a summer position, as my program is rigorous and time-consuming during the academic year but does not run through the summer months. I have lived in Alaska my entire life and truly value the sense of community here. My long-term goal is to complete my degree and continue providing thoughtful, high-quality care to members of my community.
