Hello! My name is Betsy. I am a graduate student pursuing my Masters in Education with a focus on Special Education. I thoroughly enjoy working with children and love their energy, creativity and inquisitive minds! As the second oldest of four kids, I began babysitting at a young age for my siblings and also for neighborhood children. I now have over 16 years of child care experience, of which 6 years include working as a nanny. I continue to care for children as I have a passion for nurturing inquisitive minds! Currently, I fulfill my duties as a proud aunt to two (soon to be three!) sweet and imaginative young children. I occasionally care for a young, developmentally delayed and extremely active family member. I also have experience working in K-5 classrooms, as well as with K-5 special needs students. I am familiar with child friendly activities around the Twin Read more Cities area, but I also have games and crafts to do at the house. While I am energetic and love to be creative and fun, I ensure that all activity is appropriate in terms of health and safety for the children. I will provide transportation for the children if needed. I will also help with house work, errands, and schoolwork. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you! *My driving record is actually clean! I don't know why but the results show a carpool/HOV lane infraction but I had the ticket reduced to a warning - my MNpass transponder was broken.
