While I have no professional childcare experience, I have always been told I am good with children and I have two children (6 year old boy/girl twins of my own). When I was younger I always found myself helping family members out with babysitting. In high school when my sister had her children I was there to help with taking care and raising them, then came my own children. I have recently separated from the military after 10 years and will be graduating with my bachelor's degree soon. I have a lot of free time while my children are in school or with their father, so I figured why not help others. I know how it is as a parent needing last minute care or just care to go out and enjoy yourself. Especially when you're a single parent. I have had to maintain CPR and first aid qualifications while Read more in the military and I will continue to maintain it. I always strive to treat children as if they are my own, they are innocent little souls and I understand how much patience and grace they deserve. I'm one of those parents/adults that like to get children up and active or let them explore their creative side and I like to find different ways to entertain them. So, I am perfectly okay with parents who want to limit screen time. I am here to answer any additional questions as needed.
