Hello! I'm Sixty one years young, with seven grandchildren, and have been blessed to be a homemaker staying home in the raising of my three sons. Throughout their youth, I was an active participant in all their school functions and volunteered in their classes from Elementary through High School; of which, I was privileged to work in Santa Clara school district. Where I also worked with special needs students. The job was rewarding and educational. Because of my love working with children, I attended Mission College, majoring in Education. During that time, I was also babysitting my grandchildren. I then decided to focus solely on my grandchildren. Now that they're older, I would love to help other parents in the upbringing of their children. Whether that be in simply picking up their child from school and /or taking them to after school activities. I enjoy walking, reading, Lego, painting, or Read more simply making up games that are age appropriate. To me, children are precious no matter what their age may be. I personally enjoy helping kids explore learning things about themselves. I look forward to meeting families that may need my helping hand.
