I am a great sitter who works in my home, with families dropping off their children. I worked in healthcare for 10 years, and I don't mind long hours and physical work. I am compassionate, patient and accommodating. I can routinely babysit for 12-hour shifts, for nurses, healthcare techs and shift workers who may be having a hard time finding a sitter willing to work long hours. I work weekends, too. My clients can count on me to take care of their children every day, even if they are sick. I watch infants, even preterm ones, by holding them all day if needed. I offer these extras and I keep my fees low because I was a new mother once and I remember how difficult it was to go to work. This past year I have cared for a 3-year-old with autism, which has been very rewarding. I am limiting myself to three children so that I may give them lots of attention. I have been CPR certified for 10 years.

I live in the Bowling Green, Ohio, area and am interested in a part-time/full-time nanny situation. I am willing to do light housekeeping, and I am very comfortable with animals. As a teacher, I can assist your child/children with their homework or assist in helping them learn to read.
