About Valene
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a returning full-time college student, attending Russell Sage to pursue my Physical Education degree, starting at the end of August. I am hoping to find a position that is flexible with my class schedule; ideally, after school care, so I am able to potentially have a serving job in the evenings. I have experience babysitting since the age of 16. I have worked for an in-home daycare center, worked in a daycare center within a gym; I was a nanny for eight months for a 5-year-old boy. I was a nanny for a 10-month-old and a 3-year-old in Pensacola, FL for six months. For five years, I worked for the Glens Falls Family YMCA as a swim instructor, lifeguard, youth sports instructor and after-school program counselor. In 2015, I managed my own PreKindergarten classroom in Clifton Park, and was recently a nanny for twins, age 2. I love working with children of all ages!

Val was great with my twins! They looked forward to seeing her and they never really gave me a problem when I left them with her. She was always on time and flexible with her hours. We were sad to lose her because we were really growing close with her.
