I am the mother of six grown children. I was a stay at home mom for 27 years raising my children and being involved in their lives into adulthood. My children are now between the ages of 32 and 22, including a set of triplets. While raising my children, I earned a Bachelor's degree and volunteered at their schools and with their sports. I also cared for a neighbor's child, providing after school care. I have experience with Asperger's Syndrome and some familiarity with in home medical care. I have a very flexible schedule. I currently work as a substitute teacher in our local school district. I also just finished up a two and a half year position as a nanny with a family with two children. Therefore, I have experience with infants, toddlers, early education and children with disabilities. I have had recent and extensive background checks. I can Read more provide excellent references.
