Phoenixville Special Needs Care

Hello! I'm Molly! To tell you a little bit about myself: I am 22 originally from Phoenixville, PA. I am a Senior at University of Tennessee - Knoxville. I'm majoring in Social Work, with a minor in Child and Family Studies. After graduation (May 2019), I will be attending Law School! I lived on a farm so I am comfortable with many animals. I started babysitting at age 13. I am comfortable with taking care of newborns through teenagers. I have experience with twins, as well as children with special needs. In the summers of 2013, 2014, and 2016 I worked as a summer camp counselor at YMCA Camp Cory of Greater Rochester, NY. In the summer of 2015 I volunteered at an orphanage and outreach program in South Africa. Summer 2017, I worked at a group home for teenage boys who have experienced severe trauma. I have a great deal of experience for someone my age and would be more than glad to do a phone screening or interview with you. Thank you for looking at my bio! Have a great day!

I currently work as a preschool teacher and youth soccer coach. I have been working with children for over six years. I have all of my childcare clearances, a clean criminal record, and a clean driving record if the job requires transportation. I have worked as a nanny for families with up to three children, and worked as a babysitter for families with up to 6 children. I'm great with pets and I am a non-smoker. I also have experience working with children that are autistic or have other special needs. I'm known for going the extra mile by helping with cleaning, cooking and pet care in my extra time.

I have worked with children off and on since I was 14 years old. I started as a camp counselor for ages 8-10 at sleep away camps. After high school I took Early Childhood Ed classes and worked full time as a caregiver in a daycare. I worked with ages up to 13 years old. I was the lead teacher in the 0-1 age group and later in the 2-3 age group. I also have experience in caring for children with special needs. I am also comfortable with taking care of more than one child if that was needed. I am willing to work anytime Im not in class including weekends and nights. My classes are: Tuesday and Thursday 8:30 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. 12:45 p.m. to 2:10 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday 11:30 a.m. to 12:20 p.m. 1:30 p.m. to 2:20 pm

Hello! My name is Traci. I am the Nanny you are looking for; I am experienced, educated, energetic, caring, and dependable!. I am looking for families who are interested in individual or shared care. Care would take place at my home and include my very friendly 19-month-old son. I prefer to provide care in my home because I have used my knowledge of child development to set up a space that best supports our children's development and makes it easy to allow them to be active and explore the world around them. I have recently been providing temporary care for my neighbor's 14-month-old and it has been a great experience for us all. I look forward to finding another family to partner with to help our children learn and grow together! My background: I have a Bachelor of Science in Applied Developmental Psychology (child development) and a Master of Education. I am certified in PA to teach Elementary K-6 and Middle School (7-9) Math, Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies. As you can see, I'm a bit of an overachiever and love all subjects! Really, I just love learning and would love to foster that in your children. My experience includes group childcare, nanny work, teaching, and tutoring. I have experience with children with special needs including learning, autistic, emotional, and gifted support. I have training in the arts and technology and first aid/CPR. As a substitute teacher, I have FBI, State, and Childline background checks that I can provide to you. My philosophy: I believe children learn best through play and exploring the world around them. I take a child-centered approach and build off of your children's interests to guide them towards activities and experiences that are developmentally appropriate and will help them to reach their full potential. Through open-ended play, we'll explore and learn in areas of reading, math, science, dramatic play, sensory play, fine and gross motor development, music, and more! We'll get out and explore the world by going to the library, parks, zoos, etc. We'll also have quiet time reading lots of books. And of course we'll do some messy, fun art! I use positive guidance to help your child learn and grow to be the best person they can be. Through positive guidance, they'll know they are loved and develop a secure attachment. They'll learn about consequences, good and bad, and how to make good choices. As part of positive guidance, I do not use corporal punishment or time-outs, instead I use natural consequences.

My younger sister is almost 18 years old and is special needs. I've helped take care of her since I was probably 8, so that's around 12 years. I love working with special needs children and seeing them improve and making them feel like they matter, because they do.

I currently watch an 11-year-old autistic boy for part time. I would love to help you care for your special needs loved ones.

My name is Maria and I have been caring for children and teenagers in various settings for 10 years. I have been a babysitter for 10 years, an over-night camp counselor for kids with special needs for 6 years, I was a tutor and I currently work with middle and high schoolers at an alternative school in Coatesville. I have an undergrad degree in Psychology and plan to go to graduate school for Social Work. I love working with kids of all ages. I am patient, always on time and I am a very hard worker. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

I have been a special education teacher for over 12 years. I am currently taking a break and looking into alternative careers in education and care. I have worked with all ages from preschool to high school. I have worked with the special needs populations for many years, since I was a young adult.

Hello! I am a 2014 graduate of West Chester University, and I am currently working on my Master's degree in Occupational Therapy at Temple University. In the past, I have worked in various educational roles, including as a job coach at a school for students with special needs. My role was to help young adults gain life skills and vocational experience in a school/community-based environment. Overall, I greatly enjoy helping individuals engage in meaningful activities, while fostering independence.

My experience caring for those with special needs includes my time as a teacher with a full-inclusion classroom as well as my time as a sports coach. I do not have the most extensive background here, but I am caring and intelligent.
