I am a 53 year-old mother of three precious sons. I at age 12 started babysitting and it was my main source of income throughout my school years. I have been a stay at home mother for 25 years with the occasional care giving opportunity. I am a retired home school teacher. I have taken care of the elderly and children with & without varying disabilities. I sincerely want the joy of giving children love and attention as it fills my heart. I come to the table with peace, understanding, a deep faith in Christ, lots of laughter, a love for nature, honesty, promptness, mindfulness, quirkiness, singing, being creative, respect, love for adventure, solid references, kindness, and most importantly love. I have no problem with cooking, pet care, cleaning, decluttering, and organizing as I enjoy helping in that way too. I thank you for your consideration and look forward to Read more seeing who I may meet on the next part of my journey.
