I raised two children of my own, now 32 and 34. I also helped raise my now 19-year-old granddaughter with my step-daughter. While I was not a perfect mother, I've learned a lot about parenting over the years, especially with my granddaughter. I've learned that children need to know that they are heard. They need boundaries, structure, and age-appropriate discipline. Children thrive when they know that they are loved by their caretaker, that their thoughts and ideas matter, that they are free to be children and not miniature adults. Children need to run, to play, to express themselves in whatever talents and gifts they have. I think one of the most important things you can give a child is consistency, understanding that no means no and pitting parents and caregivers against each other is unacceptable. I am not a professional babysitter or nanny, but I love children and have a Read more desire to nurture children in their parent's absence.
