I have been told that I am like a modern day "Mary Poppins" and take that as a huge compliment!!! I am a mature, and yet very playful, mother of two adult daughters, grandmother of two wonderful (of course!) babies, and have years of experience as a licensed Early Childhood Education teacher and a nanny . I have a Master's degree in Special Education as well. I am warm, playful, responsible and reliable. I have a recent year car and am a safe driver. I'm a non smoker and animal lover as well. I am very flexible about additional duties, responsibilities, and extended hours. I have years of experience helping children with their homework, and reteaching lessons as well. I am happy to arrange play dates, take kids to after school activities, and find fun outside places to take children to. (It's amazing how many neat places Read more I have discovered that are only a short drive away!) I will gladly prepare healthy snacks and meals for your children based on your suggestions. Although I am lots of fun to be with, my maturity gives me wisdom that many younger babysitters do not yet possess. I am mature enough to handle most situations as they happen, and make the appropriate decisions. If you are looking for someone that can really take your place when you are not home, look no further. You can surely find less expensive child care providers. However, it will not be easy to find someone as experienced, reliable and nurturing as me!!!
