I have always loved working with children! While my own sons were young I babysat for many families, sometimes in their home sometimes in my own. I am a certified Montessori teacher for ages 3-6 years, and have been a Head teacher in the classroom setting for the past 13 years. I decided I wanted to go back to working with children on a more personal level in the home environment. I am very active and fun, enjoy the outdoors and playing games or doing projects with children. I love to read to them or listen to them read, and of course I am very interested in homework help. Household chores and drop offs/ pick ups are part of my offering. I have numerous reference, a clean drivers license and my own car. I am also an animal lover! I would love the opportunity to provide a safe, fun and Read more nurturing environment for your child.
