I'm very experienced and comfortable with childcare and love what I do! I like to interact in ways that suit each child's developmental progress. I especially enjoy promoting creativity with things like music and art. I also enjoy cooking and organizing and have no problem helping with light cleanup. I've been on Care since 2017 with all ages, from newborns to 9 years old. I have a daughter in college. I enjoy age-appropriate play while the children are in my care. Where possible, this includes some kind of learning, fun, or both. For the younger ones that may mean shapes, colors, or blocks. For the older kids that might be puzzles, painting, cooking, or games. I can swim, travel, or stay overnight need be. I'm available for occasional care, date nights, extended trips, and short term assignments. I also am available to cook, and have experience as a personal chef. I love organizing, gardening, animals, photography, and more! I like to consider myself an extension of you, their parent(s)! That means I'm happy to help with meals or anything you'd need.
