I am the owner of a local Preschool (The Book Nook Preschool). I am a STEP 10 on the Oregon registry Steps program. I have three beautiful children (11, 8 & 3.5 years). I own a nice home in the North Gilham/Cal Young area. We love to go walks and play at the park. I love to play on the floor and read books all day long! I own my own car (a beautiful MOM VAN- 2010 Honda Odyssey). You can expect tons of pictures (and cute videos) of your littles sent to you each day ( I have been a photographer for over 10 years)! I am an U Of O grad! Also, went back to school for Early Childhood at PSU. I have over 30 years of experience. I was hired as a teacher in the children's program at Parenting Now. I have worked at The Child Center and been a personal nanny for years. I have actually been babysitting since I was eight! (I know)! If you have a little one 3-6.5 they can join my preschool! If not, I would love to take on a part-time nanny position. Either afternoons, after school care or weekends. I would love for you to bring your little(s) to my home. I provide a safe, loving and caring environment. I am patient and compassionate. I would treat them as my own! I am first aid/CPR certified and my background check is on file with the state of Oregon. If this sounds like something you would be interested in feel free to message me! I look forward to hearing from you soon!!!

Greetings Honored Parents! Here is some relevant information about me, your Potential Perfect Sitter: I love spending time with children of all ages. I raised 3 successful kids (now adults), 2 of whom I home-schooled until middle school. We belonged to a homeschooling group, so I am adept at connecting and tutoring kids of all ages and backgrounds. From 2018-2020, I worked as an Educational Assistant in the 4J School District, grades K-12. My philosophy when it comes to parenting/childcare is this: when children know they are loved, they feel confident to pursue and achieve their ideas, goals, dreams. Children feel loved when these (short list) conditions are present: listening, playing, creating, exploring, validating, learning, synergy with friends/family/caregivers. I'm a great believer in giving children freedom to explore their interests and surroundings, while providing healthy boundaries and appropriate structure. Spending time outside in nature, doing arts/crafts; and playing games are mainstays of my childcare mojo. I'm not a huge fan of allowing kids to spend their precious time and talents in front of a screen, or on social media, unless it forwards educational or other specified goals. Regarding discipline - my belief is that if a child acts out or is disruptive, they are either not getting their needs met; or are testing boundaries. Children 0-3 typically cry or tantrum due to not getting their needs met - dirty diaper, hungry, tired, need to be held and rocked/bounced. The solutions to these issues are obvious and relatively easy. Children ages 3-13 may act out due to not getting their needs met. But may also act out to test boundaries. What to do when a child in your care is acting out to test boundaries? I have an excellent theory of case and method, and would love to share it with you. I look forward to hearing from you, Honored Parent!
