I am a 31 year old woman visiting family on the Vineyard for a few weeks. I grew up on Martha's Vineyard and have been living in Lillehammer, Norway for 5 years running a cafe with my husband. I am easy going, flexible, and used to being very busy with work. Visiting family and loving the Vineyard for all it has to offer has given me even more energy. I have worked with babysitting since the age of 14 and think children are so fun to work with and also learn from. I worked within the Martha's Vineyard public school system as a substitute teacher for 3 years before I left for Norway. I got the opportunity to be a substitute for kindergarten through 8th grade, so I've worked with all elementary age groups. I have a love for nature and the outdoors as well. I also used to work Read more as a gardener and property manager for 4 years before moving to Norway. So with all of the above, I definitely know how to get my hands dirty, work hard, love children, and can do many tasks within a household, business, outdoors and indoors. I do have a clean driving record, drivers license, and a car. Anything else you want to know I wouldn't mind answering. Call me, email me, whichever is convenient for you if you would like to meet or need a babysitter anytime. Morning, noon, or night I am open!
