Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • 18 years paid experience
  • Babysitter in Bryans Road, MD 20616

Meet Dionne

  • Early Childhood Special Education Certification
  • Has a car

My name is Dionne, and I'm a married mother of four adult children (ages 30, 28, 26, and 21). I ran a successful home daycare for 12 years, and have always gravitated towards the 'village' role of helping to rear children. Children are impressionable, precious beings who need, most importantly, protection, but also sound guidance, and a well-rounded growing/learning experience. While I am not a fluent Spanish-speaker, I incorporated basic Spanish vocabulary into our preschool curriculum, and introduced ASL basics to infants as early as four months old. Every parent of every child I've ever cared for has raved on my ability to effectively handle children, while providing them with a safe, fun, learning environment. I have SEVERAL references, and tend to remain a part of the children's lives who I touch continually. I have Early Childhood Education experience. I possess all the training required by Maryland State to hold a Read more childcare license. I am CPR certified, including pediatric CPR. I also have first aid training. I have been extra safe during the Covid crisis, and have received both doses of the vaccine. I am willing to adhere to any safety precautions you establish.
