Hii! My name is Stephanie and I am a 21 year-old college student studying to get my degree in legal studies. I grew up as the oldest child in my family, constantly caring and looking after for my two younger sisters. Iβve always had a genuine love for children and caring for others. Growing up with younger sisters, I was very involved in helping my parents care for and raise them, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to make children feel safe, loved, and understood. I truly enjoy spending time with kids, whether that means playing board games, helping with homework, prepping their food, tucking them to bed, or even just simply conversing with them. Iβm someone who puts a lot of heart into everything I do, and when Iβm caring for someone elseβs children, I want nothing but the best for them. My goal is to give parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in caring, responsible, and loving hands. I'm excited to be able to help parents out so that they can go enjoy some time to themselves like they deserve!! :)

I am a kind person who genuinely enjoys being around kids.Currently, I am a student at Riverside, and I balance my classes with a part-time job while studying to become a teacher. I have plenty of hands-on experience with children of all ages, including caring for my nieces, my little cousins as well as babysitting the babies of my siblings' friends. Through all of this, I have learned that younger kids are naturally very active and full of life. I completely understand when they get frustrated, and I know how important it is to always stay alert and aware of their needs. Because children have so much energy, my approach is to remain patient, proactive, and calm so that I never get overwhelmed or overwhelm them.
