I am a mother of five children, grandmother of seven children. Recently, my husband and I have become foster parents mostly doing respites for other foster parents. . Also, I have all current clearances and background checks. Voluntarily, I am a Court Appointed Support Advocate for children for more than five years. I was also a foster grandparent who volunteered in the Kindergarten in the Johnstown School District. I had a paid position caring for my oldest granddaughter the first year of her life daily while he parents attended school. I truly enjoy caring for, teaching, and playing with children , especially those five and under. I am certainly willing to consider all ages.
