Hello, My name is Linda. I easily fill all your requirements. I live in Troy. I have been a nanny to several families. One with a child and a second baby for three and one half years. I worked for them for two years until the child was busy in school in the evening. They called me back to care for the two of them. I was their personal chef also, made dinners and did the grocery shopping. We did crafts and played games. I took them to the library for books and music CD’S, to Cranbrook Science Museum, to the park, to their extracurricular activities, nature activities, always reading books. I have also been a nanny to two other families for shorter periods. I work part time for a family of 7 in Bloomfield Hills. My work with their children is supervised play, homework, chef, gardening with 1 child,and Read more transporting them to classes. I have completed the Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED . I have a certificate. I am a watercolor artist and enjoy doing painting/crafts of whatever kind that a particular child enjoys. Also, books from the library and a home collection of books for the children is a stimulus to their imagination, grows their vocabulary and creativity. My own child was in the ninety sixth percentile nationally on a standardized test in the second grade. All the activities that I did with my own child to promote his enrichment, I would do with your children. I have an Associates Degree in Applied Science from the Culinary Arts Curriculum, Schoolcraft College, Livonia. I am currently making plans to be a brainwave technician. This will probably take two years. My home is in Troy where I grow crops and fruit trees. I have been involved with the Clinton River Watershed Council and Troy Historical Museum (I taught a Cooking with Flowers Class for their Thursday Afternoon Tea (60 people attended). I cross country ski, bicycle, swim, rollerblade, sew and I am an avid reader. Thank you, Linda References on request
