I am a young 45year-old mother of a lovely 25 year-old daughter. I understand the concerns every parent has when leaving their most precious creation (their child) in the care of another person. Upon meeting myself you will feel instantly reassured that your child is in good hands as I have a fun, honest nature that children gravitate towards. I moved to the US from Australia so that my daughter could pursue her dreams. While living in Australia I spent many years caring for children from baby through to young adult. I have a "working with children check" which is issued in Australia only after having a full background check completed that is more thorough than a standard background check. I look forward to offering your children the care and support they need when you as parents can't be there or when you take a well deserved break. * Please Read more note - All bookings are subject to a cancellation fee; 50% of the booking total if more than than 24 hours notice is given or 100% of the booking total if less than 24 hours notice is given. This includes if I have to cancel because someone in your household is sick with fever, coughing, sneezing or anything else contagious - You must notify me of any illness in your home prior to arrival. Any parking expenses must be paid for by the parents & a meal is appreciated when working over meal times
