I love stories, pretending, and playing creatively; I'm a sitter who is responsible, well-educated, and can help your children with everything from computers to tree forts! I have my master's degree in Music. I am employed as a professional opera singer about 18 weeks out of the year, where I work to share the fun, creative world of opera with elementary school students! I babysat a special needs child in college, and in addition to my work with children through the opera company, I taught four- and 5-year-olds in children's choir through my church, stayed involved with the middle- and high-school choir as a paid intern, and I feel comfortable with children ages 4 through 12+. I'm punctual, drug-free, a non-drinker, a voracious reader, and an early riser. I can help children with music lessons and homework: my undergraduate studies included not only music courses, but foreign languages (I am Read more most proficient in French and German), computer science/programming, world history and religion. I love music, history, art, and craft projects! I'm a meticulous housekeeper, so if you need help around the house or are concerned about the messes your little ones leave behind, fear not! I can help out.
