I am a semi- retired Christian minister and have had 5 congregations!! I have worked in Children's and Youth Ministry mostly. Had lots of fun but prefer children because they have "teachable moments" which are so special .Before that I babysat from age 14-21and always had a blast. Most were children from the church and some were over nights , as I I was single then. I never had any problems . I have two children I raised with my husband . Sarah is 23 and in graduate school in Oklahoma City. Anna is at Dicovery High in Newton. Both my girls are excellent students , in National Beta, making highest honor grades, and were first educated aged at Concordia Christian Day Schooling Conover. Although not if that denomination, it meant lots of homework, so I am comfy with that. I have a music degree from LR ( piano) and Read more can coordinate lessons if you want and also a Masters from Duke. I now live in a spacious beautiful villa 2 blocks from LR , up one street from Highland Baptist. I'm comfortable around pets. I have a Maltese,Jake who loves to play , if they ever come to my home. My cell Num is 828-514-1994. I would talk with you more and offer a day gratis on me to see if we might a fit! Peace and blessings on your family! 😊🌈🦋 ( Resume up to date if you want with anything else)
