I carried my CPM, NA and RN many years ago while living in Iowa. I worked as a babysitter, and at daycare facilities off and on for about 8 years. My spouse and I are empty nesters from our three kids (27, 23 and 19). We are also now grandparents! Highly experienced in caring for children of all ages and differences. We just moved to Peoria, February 2024. I am coming back from a very long illness. I've been cleared to work some part time hours, and would love to get myself back to the joy of childcare. I love to dance, sing and be silly; Play board games, do art, read, take them on outing's, be in nature, and just have great conversations with young ones. Also very confident in my ability for newborn and toddler care. Numbers don't scare me. Have a big family? bring it on! We Read more are an unconventional mixed family. We celebrate the differences in humanity. I do my best as a child care provider to make sure that each child knows they are celebrated <3
