Meet Shirley

  • Comfortable with pets

I have been patiently for my adult children to bless me with grand children. My goal is to develop a support role for families with a need. I was a single parent that raised my now adult children by myself. I understand the challenges of having a child with type one diabetes. My daughter was diagnosed at 12 and is now 26. I belive in the best way to teach young minds is to involve them in the process. For example if they show an interest in cooking I look for a task that matches maturity and skill level for them to be involved in the process. I am a true believer that supporting intrest in sports, education and the arts are critical in developing well rounded individuals. I'm happy to help with picking up or dropping off clients when needed. Weather you are looking for someone to come by Read more for a few hours so you can run errands, get some work done or your just worn-out and want to take a nap I understand. I'm open to providing the common coverages for work schedules, date nights, overnights, vacations (traveling with the family or allowing parents to take time and reset by themselves). We can certainly mutually discuss and set boundaries that are respectful for all parties involved. If having cameras in the home give you sense of security then please know it's your home and family so you should do what you need to do. With exception to the bathroom of course. I'm happy to make sure that any messes made while responsible are cleaned up right away. I do not make any assumptions regarding someone else gender, religious, political, or sexual preferences. We all just need to be nicer to each other.
