Meet Candace

  • Comfortable with pets

I have been married 24 years and have 2 sons, 21 and 23 years old. I have often babysat for relatives and friends through the years. I worked at a daycare during College. I have never liked a job more. I have spent 20+ years working for the Philadelphia School District in Finance. I now want to spend more time doing what brings me joy. Babies and children energize me. I have an extreme amount of patience. My friends’ nickname for me used to be “Snow White” because whenever I attended a party, the children would end up gathered around me. 😊 I also enjoy teaching children. Both of my children read at 3 years old. I don’t believe in leaving a crying baby unattended for any reason. I am confident after speaking with me, meeting me and seeing how I interact with your children, you will be secure in Read more having me watch your precious children. I can honestly say the best years of my life, so far, were when my own children were babies and young children. I so enjoy looking at the world through a child’s eyes. I am also very safety conscious and responsible. I err on the side of caution when it comes to children. I am certified in pediatric CPR and First Aid as of 10/20/2019.
