I am a retired special education teacher with 30 years of experience looking to keep my connection with children. I love providing a nurturing and supportive environment for children of all ages. Structured play and learning activities as well as direct care with a loving and positive approach are my goals. I have worked in public and private settings with ages 5 thru adult. I am not looking for a regularly scheduled sitter position. Rather, I am available as an occasional date night sitter or occasional substitute sitter.
