Hi there! First, I'm a mom of 2 for 34 years and still going strong. My life's work has been that of teacher, counselor and life coach. I love children and have always been inspired to care for them. I started babysitting professionally at age 14 after watching after my younger siblings growing up. Immediately out of college, I taught school for over 12 years, including Montessori school. I'm a very hands-on teacher and learner. I'm quite nurturing and kind. I believe in leading lightly and natural consequences, as every situation is a potential teachable moment. I enjoy the outdoors and the power of play, so I'd more than likely be out at a neighborhood park with your child, should you allow that. I'm available days, evenings, weekends and overnights. Let me know how I can serve you and your family!
