A little bit about me

A 55 year old mother of 2(ages 37 & 34) and grandmother to 4( 2 yo, 10, 11 and 6yo's) and I love them very much and I love being with, and around, small children. I do some crafts(I know how to keep them occupied) and I would prep meals, or cook(just depends) and clean up and help with laundry if needed. Being a mother and grandmother is very rewarding and I know that parents do need help from time to time, and since my children and grandchildren live a couple of hours away now, I do miss being around children(I moved to be closer around my Dad(75).

My name is Tiffiny Minnieweather. I am 44 years old with 6 children. 4 boys and 2 girls. My oldest 4 children graduated high school and now they’re reality tv Stars and TikTok famous. Millions of followers. They all live on their own. My last 2 children are here with me. Ages 15 (boy) 3(girl) real good kids. I raised my children on my own. No one has a record or even been arrested before. Thank God! I think I did an amazing job raising them. I would love to spread my motherly love to and with other children as well. I have lots of patience with children. Especially when they get certain ages you have to know when to shift gears lol! I learned that from raising my own children. I am also a licensed cosmetologist for over 22 years. Meaning I know how to communicate as well. Just a little something about myself.
