Ms. Madeleine S.

I’m an Honors student at Florida State University studying Cell and Molecular Neuroscience with a passion for working with kids. I have over six years of childcare experience with children ranging from newborns to preteens. I’ve worked with families of all sizes and have experience with newborn and infant care, bottle feeding, diapering, sleep routines, potty training, ADHD, homework help, and transportation.
I’ve also worked as a reading and math tutor for a kindergartener, a science and math tutor for middle schoolers, and as a newborn nanny. In addition, I’ve volunteered at an elementary school as a reading buddy and classroom assistant. I’ve taken several child development courses, including child psychology, childhood trauma, and lifespan development, which have given me an even better understanding of children and their individual needs.
I love creating a safe and fun environment where kids can thrive! I’m excited to get to know new families and build relationships with the kids I care for!

I began babysitting in 2019 in order to fund a project I wanted to do with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. By the time I completed my project and donated the profits to their organization, I had established wonderful relationships with the families I babysat for, leading me to babysit up until I came to Florida State University to pursue Marketing and Risk Management/Insurance. In Tallahassee, I still pursued childcare by working with kids every Sunday whilst their parents were in church service. I've worked with children ages 1 - 9 years old and am comfortable with special needs, such as ADHD.

Hi! As an oldest sister and someone who wants to work with kids for my career, I have been participating in childcare for as long as I can remember. I am a student at FSU and am double majoring in Human Development and Public Health to become a pediatric occupational therapist in the future. I spent 2 full summers (20+ weeks) working as an overnight camp counselor and have been working with kids in this way since 2021. At camp I worked primarily with 9 y/o, but have cared for/babysat all ages 6 mo- 14 y/o. In addition to working at summer camp and babysitting, I have worked in a Kindergarten classroom, volunteer with infants/babies/toddlers at church, volunteer with a local K-5 STEM program, and work with kids at a local PT/OT/ST office. I have a lot of experience with special circumstances such as: severe allergies (I have a peanut allergy myself), autism, ADHD, and diabetes. I love engaging with kids in ways they feel seen, cared for, and entertained, and look forward to meeting you!

I began babysitting in 2018 and have babysat many children as young as two years old. I have experience as a camp counselor at Wekiva Youth Camp, a nature conservation camp for kids in 1st- 8th grade. I worked at Mathnasium as a tutor for kids ages K-12 with math. I have also volunteered at Lively Technical College with the SOAR program, working with adults with disabilities. As an aunt to two young kids, it's safe to say that I have experience keeping kids entertained! I can cook, assist with homework, and help with cleanup as needed. I also have experience caring for children who have allergies, dietary restrictions, and special needs.

I have been babysitting young children (including those with disabilities) since 2015, and it has continued to be one of my greatest joys! I believe that every person that a child encounters has the ability to shape them, and I would love to help shape your children to be confident and optimistic!

I have watched children from ages <1 to around 14 years old. I have watched them at home, in church settings, and in neighborhood settings. I do what I can to play with them and keep them entertained but also make sure to uphold the rules that were given to me by the parents. I have worked well into the night before, so that is never an issue.What is your personal philosophy for childcare?My personal philosophy for childcare is to connect with the child. I believe that a lot of babysitters just find that they can make easy money out of this, but I prefer to have fun with the kids that I babysit, so that it makes it a good experience for them. I want babysitting to always be an option for the parents because being a parent is exhausting. If the kids don't have a good time with the babysitter, then they likely won't want the parents to leave them with one again. My goal is to make sure everyone is happy and gets to do what they want or get a break that they deserve.

I consider myself a creative person, and I believe the sky’s the limit in what fun and enrichment a child can learn and explore through a safe environment. I also have experience with special needs and allergies.
