Recent reference

"Laura was absolutely wonderful with my son. If my daughter had not been special needs and Laura moving to a different state I would still want her to watch my children. She always treated then as if they were her own grandkids! Even tho she moved in 2020 we still stay in touch and she still loves both my kids as if they were her own. I would refer her to anyone needing a sitter for their children. Please feel free to call or text me for a personal reference."

A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Claudia and I am a certified Speech Language Pathologist. I work in the schools with preschool aged children, so I’m looking to fill my time this summer spending time with some cool kids. I have experience working with children aged 2-12, however I am comfortable working with all ages for the right family! I love to do crafts and I come with a whole boatload of games and activities from my school speech therapy job! A healthy balance of playing outside and chilling with snacks with a movie is my favorite way to spend the summer, as well as looking for neat museums, zoos, and events to go to. I drive a mini van so there’s room for the whole gang! I look forward to meeting you and being a safe, fun, energetic addition to your summer!
