I teach children to read, alphabets and numbers, etiquette, simple sign language, potty training, etc. I enjoy reading bedtime stories! I give a lot of encouragement, but also a believer in being firm with the standards you want your child to follow. I'm a Christian grandmother who is able to play on the floor and run in the park. I love to teach while playing or driving or even just sitting and talking. I have raised 2 children of my own and have 3 grandchildren. I started babysitting in 1974. I have taught, cleaned and loved. My hobbies are sewing, embroidering, reading and baking.
