Michelle P., Child Care in Iowa, LA 70647 with 16 years of paid experience

I've been baby-sitting kids since I was in high school (I'm 36 ). Along with that experience, I also have four kids of my own. My oldest kids are fifteen and, twelve and, nine my youngest is six. I love kids. I'm not too good with words; I am better with face to face interaction, you can judge for yourself. I always keep my house in immaculate condition so you can be worry free about your kids getting sick.

Alyssa J., Child Care in Iowa, LA 70647 with 6 years of paid experience

Located in Lake Charles, Louisiana! Hey there families! With over 6 years as an in-home childcare professional- I have always had a true passion to provide the type of love and care that children should be raised with, and the kind of environment that we raise them in. Always felt a pull to be someone who can change the way they see their peers, themselves, the adults in their lives and help form the way they see the world around them- because we are raising them to run it one day. Being a positive and respectful role model in a child's life is something I will never take lightly and love to put into action in my every day. I am interested in (but not exclusively looking for) expanding my services to take on a more Household Assistants role, if that sounds like something your family may need. No matter what kind of care you are looking for- I believe my heart to serve others and desire to have a lasting impact on the lives of children makes me a solid candidate for your family!

I'm 49-years-old now, but when I was younger, I put my way through college while working in a daycare back in the 80's. I have watched children on and off my entire adult life and now have an 18 month old grandson of my own. I just recently moved back to Lake Charles from Denver Colorado where I was working for the Denver Police Department. I also used to keep the kids of a Louisiana State Trooper and I have many references.
