Hi, I’m Debra! I’m an energetic, active caregiver who loves being on the pickleball court, powering through a gym session, working in the garden, tackling home projects, and staying involved in the community. I bring that same enthusiasm and positivity when caring for little ones. I raised two sons I'm very proud of and have spent the past three years caring for my precious grandson, now 2 1/2, since the day he was born. We’ve welcomed a baby girl in March and she is the sweetest! I help my daughter-in-law around her work schedule as needed, providing reliable, warm, and engaging care that we all have come to cherish! When I was raising my children, I was blessed to have an older couple care for my youngest while I worked full-time. They felt like bonus grandparents. The peace of mind they gave me was priceless. Their love and steady presence Read more made such an impact on our family. That experience shaped me, and now I want to offer that same comfort and trust to another family going forward. Families rarely find someone who blends real-world experience, maturity, flexibility, and high energy. I absolutely love children of all ages, cuddling a baby, inspiring a toddler’s curiosity, creating playful learning moments, celebrating milestones, and turning ordinary days into learning and adventures. If you’re looking for someone dependable, nurturing, active, and joyful who can bring both peace of mind and positive energy into your home, I would love to connect and see if we’re a great fit. Warmly, Debra (*Allergic to cats)
