A little bit about me

I am an active and responsible 54 year old mother of 4 grown children looking for part-time babysitting/childcare work. I have been married for 30 years and am also a college graduate (Geaux Tigers!). Although I don't have paid experience, I have a wealth of experience having successfully cared for and raised my own children who were all very close in age (1.5 - 2 years apart). I am a very careful driver should any transportation be required and am ideally looking for afternoon work on Monday through Thursday afternoons, but can be flexible.

A little bit about me

I am a strong-willed, friendly, self-motivated, and self-driven individual. I am currently attending school at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette to study early childhood education.I am eager to pursue my dream of opening a daycare that encourages a safe nurturing environment and supports the development of children. The quality of the child's experience in the first few years of life whether that's positive or negative helps shape their brain development. I want to help children and make a difference in their lives. I want the opportunity to show them love, kindness, and knowledge.
