Stony Brook University

Graduate of Stony Brook University's Health Science Disability Studies program. I am currently employed as a physical therapist aide at BiCounty Physical Therapy and available as a part-time caregiver. I have been babysitting through out college and I am still currently in contact with all the families I have worked with. Please contact me for more information.

From the moment my younger brother was born, I have been fascinated with children and their development. I love their inquisitive nature and then witnessing their sense of wonderment when they discover something new. I thoroughly enjoy fostering their curiosity -- whatever they are interested in, we will explore. My goals are to teach them life skills, such as the ability to control their impulses, learn to share and to work with others, thereby developing an adaptive and well-adjusted child. My philosophy is to give them control over their learning; playing to their interests which leads to self-actualization, all in a positive environment. I praise hard work and effort and I teach them to become independent thinkers and also to be considerate and respectful. My years of experience, from nurturing babies to tween, long-term and short-term care, has helped me fine-tune my approach. I love being a nanny!

Hi! I'm Colleen, an honest, reliable, responsible, professional, fun & loving nanny and my passion is helping children grow and thrive in life! I have a BA in Psychology with an emphasis in Child Psychology and Development as well as a health education background. I have over 15 years of experience with children from infancy-14 y/o. I'm well versed in everything baby from tummy time to reading age-appropriate books & early education. I prefer doing fun activities with the kids such as imaginative play, learning/board games, sports, swimming, riding bikes and just having fun! I love LEGO building and arts & crafts which helps children build fine motor skills. I also enjoy going on adventures to the museum, library and park. I was a dance teacher for years so I love getting creative and keeping the kids active & engaged. I absolutely love animals, First Aid & CPR certified with great references! Looking forward to connecting and telling you more about myself & my experience :)

Hello! My name is Krista and I am 24 years old. I would describe myself as a patient, organized, energetic, and thoughtful individual which I have to be since I am a teacher. I currently work in the South Country School District as a permanent substitute. I have been working in the South Country School District for 2 years. I graduated from East Stroudsburg University in the dual certification program of Health and Physical Education. I love sports! I have been fortunate enough to have had two leave replacements in the elementary grades (k-5). I am also first aid and CPR certified. Being a teacher in a school, particularly the gymnasium, has led me to master the ability to engage the children in fun, safe activities and in the same time maintain a level of order and great management for each and every child around me. I can tie shoelaces while making a "booboo" better all while going through the steps of how to kick a soccer ball, not to mention fixing a ponytail. I understand the importance of providing all children with the opportunity to learn, grow and have fun at the same time. I have not been a babysitter since high school, which was many years ago. However, I am trusted with children every day and they always leave my class smiling! I also love pets, especially my English Bulldog, Godiva :) And don't mind cooking/baking for your children or house work!

When I was 17, my grandfather came to live with us. He no longer could care for himself or be alone. My mother and I took care of him for nine years. His mental health and physical capabilities deteriorated more over those years. His room was downstairs alongside of mine, and all night he would yell out for help with everything. They are sometimes angry, cantankerous, or afraid. My grandfather would be paranoid and afraid at times for no reason. I have a lot of patience. Seniors also need stimulation, to converse and think. The less they do, the less they can do. I really respect seniors. I recently worked with a wonderful 96-year-old man who was blind and deaf, providing him care with whatever he needed; doctor appointments, dispensing meds, haircuts, and true friendship. Upon request I could provide a reference with the family. It's a wonderful feeling to help someone.

I'm a 22-year-old, recent college graduate from Stony Brook University, where I majored in journalism and psychology. I have been babysitting and watching kids ever since I was in Highschool. I have always been great with kids and am definitely and outgoing person. I've been cooking and cleaning after myself for as long as I can remember. I'm also great with pets so that's not a problem if you have any!

Finished CNA course. And currently taking a EKG class. Finishing prerequisite classes to become a nurse.

I'm a skilled essay writer, and am capable of editing and reviewing essays of various contents. I'm also capable of tutoring elementary level math, I was an math honors student all throughout high school.

I have 5 years of experience. I can help with Transportation Services and Errands/Shopping. I'm great at cooking so I can definitely help with meal prep as well!

I'd describe my personality as fun, creative and genuine. I like working with kids because they keep you active! I'm looking for a job that is consistent. I started working with kids when I was 18, fresh out of high school. In my spare time, I like to read, hike, spend time with my pets and family. One thing you should know about me is I'm quirky. My skills include multi-tasking, being creative and my patience.
