I have spent most of my adult life taking care of children, and loving every moment. I started early and have four grown children who are doing great! Since they grew up and left, I have been continuing the life I love by taking care of other children who have been "loaned" to me --This might sound obsessive, iit's just that this is my life calling--and a wonderful one, I believe. I really do believe I could benefit most families with my experience, and my high energy level. I have recently done infant care for a newborn baby. Very fulfilling watching this little one grow. I organized and taught a mother's morning out program for a local church. My two youngest attended, along with six other children. We enjoyed doing crafts, reading together, playing outside as much as possible, and even taught a few letters and numbers to those who Read more were old enough. I believe in reading to children of all ages; children learn so much by being read to. I had so much fun teaching that mother's morning out class. At one point I had three children at home, with two in diapers. These ttwo were 13 months apart and were like twins; they are still close today. I say this to let you know I can easily keep up with multiple children. Please contact me at your convenience. I have a level 2 Background Check , CPR certificate, First aid certificate, and am certified in the Heimlich maneuver for children and adults . I have reliable transportation, and can supply you with the name and numbers of excellent references. I also have a college degree in English. Gail Mckittrick
