I am the eldest of seven and was my mother's right hand girl helping with my siblings until I left for college. Four years ago my daughter delivered a surprise and it has been my joy and privilege to help with his care on an almost daily basis. Together we seek out and destroy all the dragons in the house! For over twenty-six years I taught high school foreign languages and was very proud when the students rated my classroom as the safest place to be. Reading to children, my own included, is a true pleasure. I have also been known to play with dinosaurs, dragons like Toothless, building blocks, train sets, board games, basketball, catch, and whatever else a small child's imagination can dream up. Yes, I love coloring books! On my own time I play a lot of tennis, take walks and lift weights. I was certified in Read more CPR several years ago, but I intend to take a refresher course as soon as possible. Recently I retired from a position as administrative assistant but I love to stay active, and I feel I would be a great match for just about anybody's little ones.
