I have an endless amount of experience and a huge heart for children. I enjoy what I do and find it to be an extremely rewarding experience. I'm totally engaging with the child/children, loving and patient. I believe that children need love and encouragement. I love exploring fun and creative ways for children to learn and grow hands-on in their early years. I will always go to extreme lengths to ensure the child's/children's needs are met. I also love animals, so pets are no problem. I have worked with multiple’s, special needs. I have worked with every age group. As the YMCA director I focused with ages 5-12.

I live in Oakville. I can only accept CASH/Venmo/Apple pay. Payment is due weekly, not bi weekly. I can provide references upon request I’m looking for part- time or full- time. My husband is on a grant for seizures is why I can only accept cash. Venmo or Apple Pay. Just can’t be claimed on taxes. Carrie🥰
