I have 2 boys ages 10and 13. I was a stay at home mom for my boys. When my youngest began school I began substitute teaching all subjects and grades K-12. I subbed from 2010-2018. We live in the country outside of Macomb and I prefer to babysit at our home due to the time we have put into making it safe, educational and fun for all ages! We welcome any interested parent(s) to come and visit our little piece of Heaven. I am willing to pick up and or deliver your child if the distance is reasonable. Please feel free to contact us for more information! My husband children as well as first aid. My husband and I have both been trained as CPR instructors and emergency medicine as EMT- BD’s. We both worked in the Emergency Department at McDonough District Hospital as well. I have a college degree Read more in Health Sciences/Community Health Education. My husband is a police officer at Western Illinois University. I have a personal desire to help out single parents, as I was raised by my working mother. If she didn't have the help of her parents (my grandparents), my life would have been so very different. I am blessed because of the kindness and support of others when I was a child! I also generally love being around some of the wisest humans there are in this world: the children!
