I live in West Palm Beach (have been in the area for 7 yrs.)  I worked as a Licensed Massage Therapist for 20+ yrs.  While I had my Home/Pet Sitting business for 12 yrs., I began caring for many of my clients' children, as a babysitter and sometimes when the parents traveled.  I worked with all ages-from newborns to teenagers. I don't know that I have a favorite age--as they all have some interesting and fun thing in each stage of life.   I found I have a knack for being able to "connect" with most kids...by giving them respect, caring and a sense of fun...hence creating mutual respect and a feeling of "comfortableness" with each other.  I love all animals and nature, and many of the kids I have worked with have enjoyed these as well.  My high level of responsibility, dependability, organizational skills, and integrity have been key in all my past work.  Read more While getting my AA degree in Boston, I studied Early Child Development.  During my massage career, I taught newborn massage; and worked with many children of all ages in my practice...especially after sports injuries.
