I have been taking care of children for most of my life, starting with younger siblings and eventually moving on to neighbors and finally, when I was old enough to drive, branching out to families all over town and in several other towns. I worked at a child care center for two years after graduating high school. I have experience with children of all ages, newborns to preteens, and have taken care of twins, triplets, and children with special needs. I've done overnights, vacations, and weekends away with families, I have taken care of children from multiple families at once (up to eight), and I've gone along on all types of outings just to be an extra set of hands. I really, truly enjoy spending time with children whether we're on an outdoor adventure together, snuggled up reading a book, or talking to each other in silly voices. I have Read more twenty years of experience, I am reliable, trustworthy, and have many great references. Hopefully you'll consider letting me be a part of your child's life.
