My main professional experience is with counseling youth and their families. I have my Masters Degree in Marital and Family Therapy, and also have my license to practice as a CMFT (Certified Marital and Family Therapist). I did this for over eight years while building a business in my spare time for my true passion which is training children in sports. I now work at my business as a trainer for elite level athletes throughout Lancaster County. I love what I do, but I work every night and every weekend which leaves my daytime completely wide open. I would love to find something where I can find a family to care for their children and/or pets as I miss working with younger children and I have a huge love for animals. I am a genuine person who knows who I am and who I am not. I am responsible, reliable Read more and provide an experience for families that they find to be unique and greatly appreciate. In my neighborhood, I have been given keys to dozens of houses and frequently watch their children and/or pets, even house sitting while they are away on vacation. These are the reasons I feel I am qualified to post on this site. My ethics and values are grounded and I have a deep propensity to always do what is best for both parents and their children. When I am caring for someone, I devote all my attention to that child and /or pet. I believe throughly that the young ages are the most crucial in developing insightful, accountable, creative, self-sufficient youth who possess a great pride in their self worth. If who I am sounds like someone you would want to be watching over your most precious valuables in this world, please feel free to contact me at: 717-725-8606. I do not misrepresent myself and am completely comfortable taking direction and executing it to the manner in which the parents have requested. Thank you for your consideration.
