About Valerie
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Valerie. I graduated from The College of New Jersey in 2023 with a degree in Biology. I am BLS and EMT certified, and currently work per-diem as an emergency department technician. I am looking for a second job before I start Physician Assistant school in Fall 2025. Not only do I have experience working with children in a healthcare setting, but as a caregiver as well. Over the years, I have worked consistently with multiple families, caring for children ages 2-13. I am able to drive and have a reliable source of transportation. I am friendly, reliable, and able to communicate well. I have always maintained positive relationships with the families I care for.

For well over five years Valerie has continued to be an outstanding, responsible and confident child care provider. She began watching my children as toddlers (ages 3 and 5 years old) and still currently continues to do so (current ages 10 & almost 12 years). If only we could have sent our kids to college with her (lol)! Valerie consistently arrives at our home on time, ready for any task with our kids, and always with a smile. Both my son and daughter can relate to her and she takes the utmost interest in their current activities, hobbies, and interests. She caters to the needs of each child. For example, when my son had a fear/anxiety of dogs she was always well aware and would walk into situations tuned into her surroundings. Valerie is an excellent driver and wonderful about checking in throughout the course of her time with the kids. Her line of work is always reassuring as she is First Aid certified so I always know my kids are in the best of hands. Due to her maturity and excellent judgment, Valerie has always made me confident that my kids are safe and well looked after in her care. As an elementary school educator, parent and neighbor cannot recommend her enough. Any child would be lucky to be under her supervision.
