About Stephen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello, I'm S. J., and I am very excited to introduce myself! I've been working as a nanny in Minneapolis for over three years taking care of twin boys, and helping out a homeschool family. I have held many other childcare positions such as YMCA School Age Staff, Camp Counselor, babysitting/nannying, Au Pair in France, Head Start teacher, and many more, as well as many different volunteer experiences. I have extensive experience working with kids with ADHD/anxiety/autism and other needs. I have endless energy to keep up with your kids. I enjoy rollerblading, board games, and Chess. (And I know a lot about Pokemon!) I also play guitar and write songs. I have a connection-first approach with children and believe in collaborating with them to help them build skills and confidence while learning through play. I give space for big feelings while helping them learn self regulation skills through empathy and modeling. **References available upon request**

SJ came and hung out with my boys recently (8 & 12) for the first time they want him to come back! Would definitely hire him again!
