Hello! I’m Stephanie. I have over 14 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. I am CPR and First Aid certified. Most of my recent experience has been focused on infant care and the toddler years, including successful potty training. I love keeping kids active and creative through reading books to spark imagination, outdoor exploration, fun crafts, and hands-on educational play. I believe in patient, positive communication and always prioritize ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. I look forward to discussing how I can support your family’s needs!
“We have had an excellent experience with this babysitter and highly recommend her to any family looking for someone dependable, knowledgeable, and confident with children. She is incredibly reliable, always arriving on time and following through on every commitment. One of her greatest strengths is behavior management. She sets clear expectations, remains calm under pressure, and is firm yet fair, creating an environment where children feel secure and understand boundaries. She is also an outstanding tutor who explains concepts clearly, adapts to our child's learning style, and encourages independent thinking. She truly cares about helping children succeed while maintaining a structured, positive atmosphere. We trust her completely and appreciate the professionalism, patience, and dedication she brings every time she works with our family.”

$25 per hour for 1 child
I have well over 5 years of experience working with youth of all ages as a babysitter, coach, assistant teacher, and through additional childcare roles during college. I have experience tutoring, helping with homework, light cleaning during services, cooking meals, caring for pets, and assisting seniors. I bring both personal and professional caregiving experience. I genuinely love children and believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and encouraging environment where they feel supported and valued. I’m flexible, respectful of different parenting styles, adaptable to each family’s needs, and I always bring a positive, caring attitude. I also have experience caring for children with disabilities.
“Tati has been watching my daughter for almost two years now, almost once a month and I trust her completely with my busy 3-year-old. My daughter loves her, which means everything to me. She’s very attentive and careful, especially since my daughter has multiple allergies, and she treats my baby girl like her own. As a girl dad, it’s not easy leaving your child with just anyone but Tati has earned my trust. She’s reliable, honest, and dependable. On a scale of 1–5, I’d give her a 6.”
