Hello parents, My name is Deb and I'd like to tell you a bit about me &my experience with infants and children. I began babysitting for infants at the age of 10 (yes, ten) for several neighbors starting back in 1971, giving me 45 years of hands-on experience. I have always enjoyed the company of children, and I am an avid animal lover, so your pet(s) and I are likely to become fast friends, As an adult I practiced as a registered nurse in 2 states and specialized in Newborn Special Care, Labor & Delivery, Maternal Special Care and the Emergency room, after which I worked for private families providing infant-child care, 3 of those families having had infant twins , which I found no difficulty in attending to. I have a car, can provide you with stellar references, and am renewing my CPR/first aid certification as we speak. I Read more am dependable, sincere, reliable and have a respectful attitude regarding your beliefs/preferences on child care in order for all of us to maintain consistency in raising them. Please feel free in contacting me by call or text, at 203-919-9587. Thank you for your time and looking forward to hearing from you soon.
