Hi! My name is Michelle Sierant. I have just retired after teaching special education, ages 5-18+ and all forms of disabilities, for 30 years. I am the mother of 2 grown children. My son has ADHD and is on the spectrum. In addition to 2 sweet grandsons under the age of 5. Every Sunday morning, I teach 5 and 6 year olds Sunday School. So, I have many years of experience nurturing, teaching, coaching and loving children with all sorts of strengths, as well as areas they require more caring and support to manage. I am certified in adult/pediatric First Aid and CPR. I have a clean driving record and am willing to help out with errands related to supporting children’s activities and needs. I am also able to tutor if needed. Plus, I am willing to take care of children overnight. Overall, I simply love spending time with young Read more ones! My favorite things to do are finding opportunities to be inquisitive, explore, build, and create with children. There is nothing more gratifying for me than seeing wonderment or the joy of the “ah hah moment💡🎉” when they learn something new.
