This youthful 50 something would be honored to support you and your child care needs. I have a doctorate in education (perseverance!) and love being around children. I have a current CPR/AED/First Aid certification and was a substitute teacher in Leander for the 21-22 school year, so I have passed a background check. I also have a clean driving record. A natural gift I have is connecting with children (and pets) effortlessly. I believe it's because I'm very present and they sense my warm open-heart. I like to follow their energy and interests...noticing their special shine and what lights them up and feeding that. I go at their pace. I'm quite high energy yet can be grounded and calm. Having instructions and knowing the parent's expectations is important. I take notes while I'm with your child so I can share the positive highlights when you come home. I enjoy staying Read more in touch while you are out with texts if that’s your desire too. Pre-Covid I sat regularly for a family in Circle C for 6 years. Three children infant to middle school years... I was their go-to sitter for evening outings, overnight needs and when they hosted a party. This is what they have to say about me: Kids~ She's fun, kind and a good listener; she loves being outside; she wasn't a fan of tv; she liked to play with us and read stories at bedtime or we read to her. Parents~Julie is the best! It was obvious right away that she loves children and they are her focus when she's with them. She's great at following guidelines and will leave your house cleaner than you left it. Our children felt safe and free with Julie. When I lived in Santa Rosa Beach, FL (between Destin and Panama City Beach) one of my nicknames was Sunshine Sitter. Those were great times sitting for both the locals and vacationers. The vacationers passed my name around, so I stayed busy 3-5 nights a week without promoting myself. Thank you for considering me as a caretaker / sitter for your child. I wish you the best in finding the right match. Love, Julie R
