Meet Joy

  • Comfortable with pets

I'm a mother of two teenagers, ages 15 & 17, and have been a preschool teacher (ages 3-5) for the last 12 years. I have always also babysat for neighbors and friends. I was also very active in my children's school PTA for almost 7 years, and spent a lot of time with students in the classroom and at school events. I love to stay physically active and have run 4 half-marathons, and one full marathon. I also enjoy bike riding outdoors. I love doing indoor and outdoor music and movement activities with children. I think any parent that has had me for a teacher and/or babysitter will tell you I have a passion and gift for working with children. Also, my own teenagers are respectable, well mannered, and happy kids, which I give credit to my positive parenting. I feel am highly capable for keeping your children safe, happy, Read more and healthy and would have a positive impact on their lives :)
