Activities I enjoy doing with children...
You name it…. I’m a teacher.
I love incorporating both inside and outside activities, crafts, sensory activities, reading books, etc. I typically see where a child’s present level is and then continue toward the next developmental milestones. There are so many opportunities for our young ones and new families.

My experience with special needs children...
I graduated from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa, and received my my Elementary Education teaching degree along with two teaching licenses within Special education, as well as a minor in psychology. I completed everything for a teaching license with learning disabilities except for one class at Mankato State University.
(I did not complete this Class because I was moved to a different position). I then went back to obtain my certification in Early Childhood Special Education.
Following this I earned my Master's Degree in the area of special education from St. Mary’s University.

What isn’t to love when you’re teaching and caring for your grandchildren? I love to share their growth and funny/sweet little mannerisms with their loved ones through pictures and videos.

Babysitter Available in Hopkins, MN: Maddie M.
Hi all! My name is Maddie! I go to Minnetonka high school, and I am looking for a fun filled summer! I have past experience in babysitting coming from a neighborhood full of kids. I have been babysitting since fifth grade, but I've never had a nanny position because past summers have been filled with sports/activities. I have previously taken CPR and babysitting classes. I am also able to cook meals and I am happy to clean up as the day goes on. I'm very social. I have previously played basketball and lacrosse, but going forward I will be pursuing only flag football! I enjoy being outdoors and discovering new places (parks, pools, beaches). My parents have always been very attentive to my phone usage so I have grown to find new activities outside of screens. So far, my summer schedule only consists of a few flag football practices in the evenings and weekends. I also will be attending a short backpacking trip with some church friends (days are TBD).
