Stonehaven Babysitters

I am a 27 year old working young lady! I come from a huge family so I have a plethora of babysitting experience, as well as caring for children in different settings. I’ve worked as a behavioral therapist for children on the spectrum, a 5th grade teacher, and watching after little ones when their parents need a break. I would say I’m loving, fun, exciting, and patient. Looking forward to meeting you all!

Looking for fill-in nanny work and date nights in between my 3 nursing shifts a week and my pediatric RN program classes. I work on a 95% non-infectious disease adult intermediate ICU floor and take disease control and prevention seriously. Please give me a heads up about any present or recent illness, antibiotic usage, fever, diarrhea or vomiting within 48 hours of a booking, as I often care for newborns and infants. My favorite type of human are toddlers and preschoolers, but I do not pigeon-hole myself to only taking care of the under-5s. Fun Facts: I can read baby books in English, German, French and Spanish! I addition to those 4 languages, I can also count in Hebrew and know basic words and phrases in some 17 total languages. My immersive language preschool in Central Florida continues to provide dividends! It also helps that I studied abroad twice, first in Poland (including quite near to where my grandfather was born in Austria-Hungary) and then in Austria. Ich spreche wienerdeutsch! I also taught Social Studies. I am a human magnet for children and adults with significant ADHD and GI challenges. (These come together in really fascinating ways during potty training). I plan on centering my graduate school research on the efficacy of meditative sports in conjunction with non-stimulant ADHD medicines. Feel free to ask me about it! Note: I accept bookings that are 4 hours or longer and am simply not interested in working the after school hours (3-6), unless they are part of a full day. I also work date events, weddings and overnights for families and have for many years. Please note that my tutoring rates will be higher, as tutoring is an entirely different ballgame than regular childcare. I have 20 some years of childcare experience, since I was a kid myself. I taught 5th grade (covering Math, Religion, Science and Social Studies) at a Catholic school, been a summer camp counselor, taught at a Vacation Bible School, taught Sunday School for 10 years and have professionally nannied for newborns up through to the middle school years. Additionally, I am a college graduate, have 0 tattoos or body piercings, a lifelong non-smoker, a passport holder and strong swimmer. I have looked after kids with special needs, preemies, twins and everything in between. I look forward to working for you!

I more than 15 years of experience working with children, ages 3 days to 13 years of age, including multiple-children households, overnight and weekend stays. I believe that children want to be loved, respected and empathized with. My favorite activities are outdoor play and sports. I played recreational softball for years. My reading favorites are Dr. Seuss, Bernstein Bears, Sandra Boynton, Pete the Cat, and If You Give a Mouse a Cookie (and friends). In art - I love coloring, painting, clay, and multi-media. In fine motor skills development, I enjoy Legos, Play-Doh, coloring, paper ripping and cutting, puzzles, trains, trucks, etc. I also enjoy outings to the library, park, nature center, and museums.

Hello! I'm Maria Fernanda. I recently graduated from Queens University of Charlotte with a degree in Biology, minors in Psychology and Spanish, and a premed track. For over two years, I’ve had the privilege of working as a nanny to three wonderful girls, gaining valuable hands-on experience in childcare. In addition to my nanny work, I teach a lively Sunday school class of 12 four-year-olds, which has further honed my patience and teaching skills. Currently, I'm completing my first year of fellowship while studying for the MCAT, with plans to apply to medical school this upcoming cycle. I’m babysitting to help fund my application process, gather study materials, and give my brain a healthy break. I’m excited to share my love for childcare with more families who appreciate a nurturing and engaging environment for their children. I have no allergies, love pets of all kinds, and thrive on being active, exploring creative crafts, and enjoying outdoor play—ensuring a fun and enriching experience for kids of all ages!

Hello, my name is Marie! I graduated this spring from UNC Charlotte with a bachelors degree in Child Development. In the fall, I will be a first year kindergarten teacher!
