I know I may look a little different than most of the other great babysitters on this site because of my gender(male) age(58), and my career(already a full-time teacher) but life is full of surprises! I love children and so here I am. Although, I keep myself quite busy with my work as a full-time teacher, I do have to pay down some debt and what better way to do that than to help parents out. Parents have the hardest job(they say teachers do but I think it is parents) so it would make me happy to know you are using the time to take care of you in whatever way you need to do that. Your child/children, I believe will come to love me because of I have a wonderful sense of fun and imagination(my theatrical training helps with that). I am presently a teacher in the Paterson Public Read more Schools working with students with autism in a self-contained classroom(k-2nd). There I am known for being warm, silly, friendly, compassionate, and I love playing with the children to build their imagination! I have also written four puppet show educational musicals that have been seen by hundreds of children in tri-state area schools. https://youtu.be/wx-LtEYtw6c (to see me being interviewed by Steve Adubato) If you think we might be the right fit, I would love to hear from you and would be glad to provide references.
