I am a 35 year old married college educated mother of a beautiful 12 year old daughter. I’m currently enrolled in a distance learning program to earn my BA starting this fall. I run a small business PT and as it’s my down season I’m looking to augment my income by helping provide reliable childcare for a few select CNY families. As a mother myself I understand how difficult it can be to find someone trustworthy and affordable. My availability is generally very open. I love children of all ages and often sit for my relatives as most children ask for me :) I’m energetic, easy going and have a wonderful sense of humor. I enjoy educational activities, outside activities and can tailor activities depending on your children’s ages and interests. I’m happy to provide care in my home or yours; my own 12 year old is typically involved with Read more after school activities/sleepovers but if it was agreeable to you and appropriate she would love to occasionally accompany me. As an only child she loves younger children and will be taking the Red Cross Babysitting Certification Class next year.
