Hi families! I know looking for somebody to care for your children is not easy, so I’d like to share a little bit about myself. From the time I was little I always wanted to be a mom :-) I started babysitting when I was 11 and continued babysitting all through high school and college. I loved babysitting for the same families every summer during high school and college. It was fascinating to see these kids grow each year. After I graduated college I got my teaching certificate and taught elementary school for a few years until I had my own kids. I loved my time teaching elementary school, I loved getting to know each student and their needs, their personalities, and how to work best with them to help them succeed. All of this was great preparation for when I had my first baby but I don’t think anyone Read more is really ready for their first baby LOL! I have been a stay at home mom now for 10 years while teaching preschool part time throughout. I feel as a caretaker for your children that it is my job to follow what the parents want in their home, I am there to respect your rules and provide a fun, engaging, smooth and safe environment for your children. I love to connect with children of all ages, I love to watch them grow and meet their milestones, get into their imagination, helping with the challenges of the older years with homework and the difficulties that just come with growing up sometimes. I will be there to support your children and build them up and help with anything you request. I am first aid and CPR certified, I am open and willing to do some housework, prepare meals, carpooling, homework, baths, play dates, bed etc.! If you think I might be a good fit for you and your family and children please reach out I’d love to talk. Thanks! Meredith
