I am program coordinator for parent educators in a local school district. I am looking for care opportunities on a few weeknights and weekends. I have 15+ years working in child care/ teaching/ parent educating, through the Department of Defense Education Activity, Army Child and Youth Services, Head Start and Parents as Teachers. Having 4 grown children of my own, I recall the days where it was hard to find good quality date night or occasional care. I am hoping to help some families out.
