I've been a child caregiver for over 40 years and I just LOVE what I do! My style is easygoing, yet firm. I employ teaching through play, and encourage creativity. Being a "part of the family" is important to me. I enjoy making a difference in the future of a child. I have one teenager, a dependable car, and I'm reliable and respectful. I give my full attention to insuring safety for children, and do not snoop or steal. Honesty and trust are foremost qualities that I admire. Infants are my specialty, as I am a nurturer by nature! I do not drink or do drugs. I bring to an employer, many years of experience, which have forged several great relationships. I have references, background checks in PA and NJ, a TB test clearance, and CPR/First Aid/Lifesaver certification experience.

We encourage parents to conduct their own screenings using the background check tools. See what each of the badges covered, or learn more about keeping your family safe by visiting the Trust & Safety Center.
