At age 9, I recall stating that when I grow up, I want to be a mommy, and a teacher! Being a big sister, I grew up being “in charge” and I have always felt comfortable in that role- watching out for the babies, making sure they have what they need, and are safe. I started reading Parenting Magazine at age 13! And I did become a teacher and mother! I taught elementary school for 8+ years (some partial), as well as substitute taught for 7 years. No matter my job, I have always felt the desire to serve others and help them in whatever way possible. My 3 children are nearly grown, with one high school senior remaining at home, and I find myself missing that feeling that someone really needs me- so naturally, I am drawn back to the babies! I really love caring for little ones, and Read more really any age child. They are little people, with their own personalities, wants, and needs. And helping them find their way, learn new things, discover a love of life and learning, being important to them .... this is my reward for helping. If you need someone who will take care of your child, I hope to hear from you!
