A little bit about me

Hi:
I am devoted to taking great care of people. I Iive an active and pure, purpose driven life. I love all people but most especially children. I have my Bachelors in Education and the Fine Arts; I am a constant learner/speaker of Spanish as my second language and have lived internationally full-time and enjoyed being immersed in another culture and language. I loved it! I raised 6 children and owned a Graphic Design and Illustration Company while homeschooling them for 26 years. I thank GOD to still be fit and healthy.
I have worked amongst families and provided every level of care and the varying expectations that accompany a professional demeanor and joyful service. HNW families I am experienced with also. I have lived within homes over the years, of many a client and have references.
I look forward to hearing more about your needs.
Thank you in advance
Colleen

My eyes in the back of my head always in go mode especially if we are out.

Playing hide and seek with 2 year old Lucas whose family mostly spoke another language in their home; one I do not speak. Part of why it was so cute was this little guys accent and speech patterns when he spoke English. He would come home from his daycare with his Dad and we developed a game because of his shyness. After awhile and once he knew me, we would simply enter into our sweet game with him hiding and saying "Where are you Colleen?" and I was usually stationary, in the family room, holding the baby. Not transferring too well in writing but his voice was just too adorable.
Having my autism guy just come up to me and grab my face, laughing, or just quietly t give me a kiss when he'd see me in or outside of the times I was caring for him.

Babysitter Available in Greenville, SC: Addesynne S.

Hello! My name is Adde, I’m a 20 year old college student studying pre-vet sciences. I am new to Greenville and I am looking to be able to make new fun memories while helping local families meet the needs of their children. I love the outdoors and am very active. Before moving here I was playing soccer in college. I have always loved children and have previous experience with elementary and toddler children. I was a teaching assistant for both 5th grade and 1st grade students. After this I cared for an 8 year old and her twin sisters who were 1 year old for six months. These children were in my care 24/7, making lots of fun memories while helping with their education. Both of these opportunities helped me realize how much I thrive in this type of work. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your family!
