I'm a 30-year-old wife and mother, looking to earn an income while still spending my days with my daughter.

I do not have a formal education or certification in the childcare field, though I do have a Bachelor's Degree and experience. In addition to years of long-term babysitting experience, I worked at the Youth Emergency Services and Shelter, where I oversaw the day-to-day activities of children age birth to nine in the Crisis Nursery.

Following my experience at the Youth Shelter, I switched gears and spent several years working in the field I studied in college -- Graphic Design. However, as I've been working from home, my own daughter's developmental progress has reignited my interest in working with children. I am happy to provide personal and professional references, and I'm open to background checks as well.

An ideal position for me would be 3-5 days per week with one toddler, as our children could learn and grow together. I'd be happy to transport the children to activities, such as the library's storytimes or events at local parks, the zoo, etc. I am adamant about providing reading, music and art activities, as well as healthy meals/snacks, on a daily basis. I will gladly text notes or photos to a parent who enjoys knowing what's going on throughout the day.
