I'm Leslie Evans. I took early retirement from corporate America, worked many years in the medical field, and had been a live-in nanny throughout college. I have been an after-school headteacher responsible for curriculum, supervising staff, and making sure the classroom was fun, educational, and a safe environment. I have professionally worked with children of all ages from newborn through 17 years of age. I have worked with kids who have medical issues such as type 1 diabetes, celiac disease, various types of allergies, mental health issues, as well as kids on the autism spectrum. I have been CPR certified and know first aid. I love children and animals, and providing a loving, nurturing, and fun environment. I play the organ, and saxophone (though it's been years for the sax), and have been a vice president and very active in community theater, so I love playing dress-up and acting out Read more characters with children. I love outings to the park, the library, farms in season, etc... and encourage children to play outside in a safe environment fully supervised. I also enjoy introducing children to arts and crafts and am an avid reader. I read to and encourage children to read. I had my son reading by the time he was 4. I read to him daily. I have attended college with a major in psychology and a minor in Spanish, have worked professionally with at-risk youth, and am also a certified Career and Leadership Development Coach in the evenings and on weekends. I am willing to do light housework and errands and help with homework. I'm a good cook having learned from my mother who was a professional chef but will also prepare meals according to your preferences and recipes. I have a great sense of humor and love to entertain kids with just plain silliness while gaining their respect. I am adept at establishing routine. I have raised a 21 yr old son who is an honor student and is in his sophomore year at Merrimack College, as a single parent. He is well-mannered and an all-around great young man. (Maybe just a little spoiled). I also drive a very reliable Lexus SUV. I am available immediately. Let's see if we're a good fit!
