Meet Lisa

  • Comfortable with pets

I am an empty-nest mother of twin boys and I very much enjoy being around kids and young people. I am excellent with kids of all ages - fun and easy, but also firm enough to keep good order, follow rules and get respect and keep a good balance. I have taught ESL (I am fluent in Spanish and was good in Russian before), spent years helping other kids in schools as volunteer mother, was a parent leader in Boy Scout for 6 years, and have always been great with kids. I am educated up to Masters. I am not working at the moment so my availability is quite open and flexible. I have lots of energy and kids almost always take to me very quickly. I also follow your home instructions without argument and am adaptable to other ways of doing things. I spent 7 months of the past Read more school year as a Nanny for a family of 3 - with a 10 yr old boy, 5 yr old girl, and a 2.5 yr old - caring for them and the household for 8 hours a day while the father worked from home as a HS teacher. I have a letter of recommendation from him that I am happy to share with you upon request. Thank you for reviewing my profile and I look forward to meeting you and your children to see if we are a good fit. Thanks again. Lisa
