About Bethanie

Experience: 7 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have been caring for children as long as I can remember! I became an aunt at 6 years old and learned quickly how to change a diaper and handle a tantrum. I have been working as a nanny and babysitter for the past 7 years. I'm patient, friendly, creative, and I love making a positive impact on kids' lives. I communicate regularly with parents about their child's day (if requested!) and address any issues that arise. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational games with children. I'm certified in First Aid and CPR, and I'm comfortable caring for up to three children between the ages of 0-11. As a native English and speaker and also speak Spanish and know ASL. I'm also happy to help with language learning. Beyond childcare, I can help with cooking, meal preparation, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. I hope to hear from you soon!

Bethanie is amazing! I am always confident that my children are safe with her. She is attentive and playful, and always follows my instructions for diet and schedule, as the flow of the day allows. She was gracious with me as a new mom when I had PPA, sending frequent pictures and updates to calm my nerves. Now that my kids are older, she is diligent in matters of potty training, getting outside to play, and following my instructions on gentle discipline. She is a kind and high achieving sweetheart, anyone would be lucky to have her in their “village”!
