About Stephanie

Experience: 4 yrs

Hi, my name is Stephanie! I'm a kind, patient, and reliable caregiver with years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to school-aged kids and teens. I previously worked full-time at a daycare caring for little ones between 4 and 18 months old, and I still help out there on-call. I'm deeply passionate about working with kids and always aim to leave a positive impact in any way I can. I love creating a fun, calm, and supportive environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and cared for. I'm currently in grad school training to become a clinical counselor and recently moved into part-time work in a related role. Along the way, I've gained a strong understanding of children's emotional and developmental needs. My schedule is flexible, and I'm available for both occasional and scheduled care. Above all, I will always care for and tend to your child with love, empathy, and attentiveness.

Stephanie was amazing! She was incredibly sweet, warm, and nurturing with my son—she immediately connected with him and met him right where he was. She was adaptable, attentive, and genuinely engaged. We even had an unexpected situation at the beach involving a disruptive stranger, and Stephanie handled it with calm and care. While I focused on de-escalating, she made sure my son felt safe and supported throughout. She even had the foresight to record the incident. We’re so grateful and will absolutely be reaching out to her again. Thank you, Stephanie!
