I have 15 years of childcare experience with children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I have plenty of babysitting experience. I have worked in a private school teaching classical education, have been a children's minister at several different churches, and have tutored children, especially in the areas of English and writing (I have a BA in English). I also have experience teaching ESL and working in cross-cultural settings. Above all, I seek to help give children the care, nurture, and affirmation they need to grow into healthy, happy young adults. I love playing with and learning alongside them, while also giving them safe boundaries. I can also cook, clean, and am very good at entertaining and keeping children happy. I am responsible and punctual.
