I have experience caring for children from 6 weeks to 11 years old, as well as tutoring students ages 5–17 across K–12 subjects. I speak conversational Spanish and would be happy to incorporate language learning into daily activities with your children. My approach to childcare is calm, attentive, and highly engaged. I value gentle parenting principles and draw inspiration from Montessori and RIE philosophies. In addition to childcare, I’m very comfortable assisting with household management tasks, anticipating parents’ needs, maintaining routines, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I also absolutely love pets and am very comfortable around animals. I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and am comfortable traveling as needed.

Hello, I'm Stephany, a 28-year-old Brazilian living in the USA. I have a driver's license and am CPR certified, ensuring I'm prepared for emergencies. I also have my own car and a clean record. I'm patient, easygoing, and love spending time outdoors, whether it's walking, biking, or visiting parks. I have over five years of experience working with children. I used to work in a school back in Brazil, where I looked after more than 15 kids at a time. During the pandemic, I started caring for two children at my home. One was just 5 months old, and the other was 4 years old. I took care of them for a year and a half before moving to another country. In addition, I have two years of experience as an au pair, where I focused on studying behavior and discipline management, effective communication, child development, and time management. I'm passionate about caregiving because I find immense joy and fulfillment in nurturing and supporting others. Witnessing the growth and development of children is incredibly rewarding to me. I also love animals and have two dogs. Thank you for considering me.
