My name is Darci and I love working in childcare. I started babysitting at age 13 and never really stopped caring for children. I worked at daycares in my teenage years and then went onto start my own family. I have 3 children of my own, now 13, 10 and 8. All boys, but I have babysat girls full time as well. Whenever I was a stay at home mother, I also babysat for other children in my home. Both for income and because I love a houseful. I've potty trained, taught to read, played in the snow, in puddles, with play-doh and crafts. Made up songs, games and stories. I have cooking and cleaning experience both in and out of the home as well so you'll never come home needing to pick up after myself or your children. I've dealt with picky eaters, shyness and difficult behaviors and loved Read more every minute of it. I have my high school diploma. I have a clean driving record and my own transportation. I was CPR/first aid certified up until four years ago. When I reentered the workforce outside of my home, I allowed it to expire but would gladly recertify. I also have references upon request. I look forward to taking care of all ages of children again. I am always available Monday-Friday 9am-4pm. I have evening and weekend availability as well but not full time.
