Hello...My name is Phyllis and I am an experienced childcare provider who is looking to help out families as a 'mother's helper' or to babysit part time or to babysit on an as-needed occasion such as a date night. I have been licensed through the State of CT as a substitute in home daycares since 2006. As part of the licensing processing, I have consistently passed a background check. I recently renewed my Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certification in April 2021. As a substitute in the home daycares, I am use to being with multiple children, following nutrition guidelines, naptime routines, etc. I also care for 2 children age 3 and 6 years on an as-needed basis. When I am with children, I love to see how their minds work and how their interests develop. I enjoy kids music, shows, creative and imaginative play, reading children's books, etc. During activities, Read more I incorporate educational aspects based on age such as identifying colors, right/left, critical thinking, etc. I can also provide homework assistance. The children that I care for always come first but if there is an opportunity to wash the dishes, sweep, or fold the laundry, etc, I will do so. I can also assist you in household activities such as switching over the seasonal clothes, pet care, and other chores. I am comfortable being with pets. I look forward to meeting your family!
