Hi there! I am a Mom of 2 young adult children and also a "retired" preschool teacher. I left teaching at my local school district as a teaching assistant for special education when Covid hit because I needed to be home with my kids- to support them with their studies and their mental health. Teaching was such a rewarding and fulfilling career and I do miss the children-my students. I have a very caring and patient nature and really enjoy interacting and hearing children's view of the world around them. I love doing different activities. I feel it's so important for children to learn through play. I love to be outside when the weather cooperates, and feel there's always an opportunity to learn new and fun things through the world around us. I'm willing to come to your home or your child is welcome to come to mine. Looking forward Read more to hearing from you and developing a relationship with you and your child(ren)
