I’m a grandmother, retired math teacher, cashier, tutor, childcare/senior care provider, and a non-smoking pet lover! I enjoy the outdoors, reading, crafting, organizing, doing more cooking, and spending time with my kids and grandkids. I strongly believe that kids should be happy, given lots of hugs, kept healthy and active, but also taught (and shown) respect and discipline. After 20+ years of teaching I’ve learned that kids are much more accountable and responsible for their choices when they feel, see and hear lots of positive reinforcement! I’ve been temporarily caring for a 1-yr old for WFH parents. I also worked a seasonal position at Amazon - interesting! Previously I was taking care of a sweet 6mo baby girl for first-time parents who both worked at home (full-time) — since she was 6 weeks old! Prior to infant care (and moving) I helped a wonderful elderly couple with basic care (part-time) Read more and for 2 years I watched over 3 kids (the oldest being handicapped) full-time for a single mom (she worked very long hours). I am Covid vaccinated and boosted, and have a car. I have also had a completed background/MV check with previous jobs. Love to hear from you if you’re interested!!
