Find an after school nanny in Speed, NC

Hi! My name is Colette, I'm 18 years old and my previous caregiving experience took place in a preschool I took care of toddlers ages 1-4. During my experience i had to supervise children during play, meals and nap time. I kept the environment peaceful and clean and made sure the kids were comfortable and happy. I have previous baby sitting experience of 6 years. I grew up taking care of toddlers and babies. I previously lived in Trinidad and Tobago and migrated to North Carolina April 28th 2025. I’m extremely patient , nurturing and reliable. My senior care experience involves taking care of my grandparents. I am willing to do cleaning, laundry and helping with homework.

Hi there! I’m Stephanie. I’m 32 years old and I have over 10 years of childcare experience with a variety of ages, although I have minimal background with children under 6 months. I have a plethora of special needs experience, especially with ASD and ADHD. I have worked with over 100 families performing date night and backup care and have had multiple more consistent nanny families over the years. The latter included everything from meal prep, pickups and drop offs, to tutoring. My undergraduate education is in environmental studies. I took a tropical biology field quarter in Costa Rica during college and as a result, know basic conversational Spanish. Post graduation, I worked for a period of time as a teacher for an outdoor school and also seasonally in parks. After this time, I spent years working in IT as an analyst. I’m currently in a masters of data science program. In my spare time, I ride horses and am an amateur photographer. I’m also teaching myself Japanese. Additionally, I love tinkering with computers and playing video games just as much as I enjoy being outside! It brings me great joy sharing all of my passions with kiddos. I favor the Montessori method and enjoy doing interactive activities with children like tinker crates. I also love getting kids outside when possible. I have many cameras and sometimes bring them to share with kids when requested, indoors or outdoors! When it comes to parenting style, authoritative is what I lean towards. I focus on positive reinforcement where possible and creating a collaborative environment with kids so they feel part of the process i.e “would you rather brush your teeth in 2 minutes or 5 minutes?” Instead of simply telling them to brush their teeth. As well as, bringing fun activities the next time I come as a reward for good behavior that day. Due to my schooling, I am currently only accepting occasional jobs. Given I am a student and work with multiple families, I am not able to work with sick kids in most instances. PLEASE inform me if your child is ill, I will do the best I can to work with you. I also cannot take a job with only a few hours of notice. I need at least 24 hours.
