I am originally from the beautiful island of St.Lucia , and I enjoy visiting whenever the time allows. I enjoy the great outdoors, working in my garden and planting new plants and seeds; personally I believe it is important to take advantage of the fresh air. I have two children who have recently graduated from college. I am also a creative person, this led me to attend Penn Foster to pursue a certification in Child Development, although I had to defer due to personal reasons. However, as a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and creativity/art with kids. Most recently, I have cared for a 4 year old which included watching him and preparing minor snacks/light housekeeping. I think it's important to provide children with a fun, fulfilling and enriched environment. I am an enthusiastic and responsible person and look forward to meeting you and your kids!

I have been babysitting children since eighth grade when I was first trusted to look after my younger brother when my parents had to go out to a business functions. Since then I have always babysat either during the mornings and evenings for different families and if they happened to have a dog to walk/feed or any other pet to take care of I would gladly perform that task as I have a natural love and respect for animals. Although babysitting is a part time endeavor for me, I take this task just as seriously as my main career as a chess program director/chess instructor. I am comfortable performing many different household tasks such as cooking and cleaning and one of my strengths as a babysitter is being able to engage children in intellectual related endeavors such as reading, writing and art and helping them with their homework if necessary. I also know how to play many different boardgames such as Risk, Stratego, Connect Four, Chess and am very open minded when it comes to engaging myself in the hobbies that your child prefers to engage in.
