My passion in life is working with young children. I was a preschool teacher for 5 years. In June 2015, I had my son, Owen, and decided to stay home with him for his first year. My goal now is to work with young children again while being able to stay at home with my son. I am well versed in the knowledge of developmental milestones and activities to promote these steps. I enjoy creating art, sensory, motor, and educational activities daily to promote exploration and learning. I use sign language on a daily basis to promote communication. If you are a breastfeeding family, I am knowledgable about paced bottle feeding. I am comfortable watching a child from newborn-10 years old. Unfortunately, I could only watch one child due to the size of my car (2015 Toyota Corolla). I am very flexible with watching your child at your home or Read more at mine. I am located in the Bee Cave/ Lakeway area. This is something we could discuss. What sets me apart from many caregivers is that I would not charge for sick days or pre-arranged days off. I am looking to start caregiving around June, but I am willing to start sooner if the right family comes along. I love being a mother to Owen, but I am excited to work with other children too!
