I am an empty nester mom who is looking to earn some extra money and do it by spending time with kids! I have lived in Amherst for 14 years, previously served on my neighborhood board and can provide neighborhood references as to my character. I also served on the board and volunteered for many years at my child’s independent elementary school in Amherst. I subsequently served as a substitute in the classroom at the school and previously briefly subbed in the Amherst Public Schools. I have coached Amherst Youth Soccer, served on the board of Amherst Youth Lacrosse and did committee work for Amherst Hockey Association. In addition I was a social worker in my previous life and have a masters degree in the field. I worked with children and adolescents and their families. I am fully vaccinated, including a booster, and I’m tested for Covid twice weekly as Read more required by my day job at a local college. I’m happy to help if you need to do a quick errand or attend meeting or are going out for fun! I’m also happy to tidy up and do laundry if that’s some thing you would like and is manageable while attending to your kid(s)! You can find me here on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/pippa-comfort Lmk if you’d like to meet or talk!
