I am a mother and grandmother. My grandchildren are now grown. So, I'm looking for children to whom I can give my "Grandma Love". I am Positive Discipline certified. After retiring from my own business, I worked 20 hours/week for four years in a first-grade classroom as a math and English tutor. I know the new Common Core math. I've been taking care of younger children (6-7) part time for "Date Nights" for the past three years. References are available on this site. I'm available for occasional events and date nights.

Hired Roberta to look after my cat while I was away for a few weeks over the holidays. Roberta is very friendly, reliable, and trustworthy. I will hire again for any future cat sitting needs. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!

Roberta is great with animals. She took care of our kitty for an extended weekend. She was amazing. We had her stay overnight and she took great care of our home too. We really appreciate her services. Don't look for another sitter. Roberta is the one.
