I have had several years of experience working with children of all ages. I am currently an actively involved grandmother to five grandchildren (ages 1-10) and have several years of sitting experience. I spent five years sitting children in our home from 1989 - 1994. I was certified by Oregon state as a preferred care provider at the time. I have 11 years of child development and education experience. I was certified for child development in 1995, but have not kept the certification active. I do however, have several years of experience as a tutor, homeschool teacher, volunteer classroom advocate, and as a volunteer with children's church groups and activities. I have been formally trained as a certified nurse's assistant which required CPR training and advanced first aid. I have several years of experience in working with children of all ages and love being involved in their activities and meeting Read more their needs. I volunteered for three months at a girls orphanage in India where I simply read stories, played games, and helped the girls do laundry. I am willing to do light housekeeping and cooking and am experienced with cooking meals for selective eaters.
