My name is Laura, and I'm a flight attendant for a major U.S. carrier, which allows me a very flexible work schedule with lots of days off. I absolutely adore children, pets, and kind hearted seniors, and nothing makes me happier than making you and your family feel right at home on the plane. I have two Bachelor's degrees and graduated with honors from Albion College in Albion, MI. In my spare time I enjoy riding my bicycle, walking my two sweet dogs, going to the beach, reading, and visiting my beloved nieces and nephews in Michigan. I'm also a volunteer at Central Brevard Humane Society, a 10 gallon platelet donor at Oneblood, and a member of East Coast Christian Center. I'm not one of those sitters who will just plop a child in front of his electronics all day, while playing on my phone and ignoring him; I have Read more a heart of gold, lots of days off, my own car to get me back and forth, and, best of all, an endless supply of positive reinforcement, encouragement, and giggles to share with your sweet child(ren). Rest assured that your little one(s) will be safely in my caring, capable hands; you can trust me to treat your children and your home with the same care and respect I'd expect my own family to receive. I've had my job since 2005, am responsible for the safety and comfort of up to 175 passengers per flight, and have been successfully vetted with a minimum ten year background check performed by the FAA; I'm certified in CPR, first aid, and AED operation, have never been arrested and can provide references. Thank you so much for allowing me the chance to get to know you a little bit. I humbly thank you for your consideration. Yours sincerely, Laura :)
