Hello! I can do a little of everything! I was a middle school math teacher for 10 years, I have been married for 15 years, and I have two sons ages 12 and 2. I can clean, cook, tutor, walk a dog (or 6) and I'm quite the entertainer. I have been in Rockford my entire life, besides college. I have a masters degree in education and a bachelors degree in biological science (along with a teaching certificate). I am taking a break from teaching to work on my own creative outlets. I love reading, cooking new things and I absolutely love to garden - I consider myself a master gardener without the official stamp of approval. I love camping (we have a teardrop trailer), traveling and listening to music. My family has been to pretty much every coastal town in Michigan and camped the UP the last two summers. Read more I love working/playing with children and I could be a great help with homework. I have a two year old so I'm still in the diaper phase, but trying to convince him the potty chair is fun... I would consider myself more as a babysitter/tutor, but can help in all other ways needed. Thank you.
