Hello! I loved every minute of my years as a teacher, and I adore children. I've cared for newborns to teens, including newborn twins! As a teacher, I coached sports and put on plays. As a mom, I loved having our home filled with half the kids in the neighborhood. Since retiring, I have served as a nanny and preschool teacher, and have excellent references.
I have an undergrad degree and most of a master's in education, with lots of ongoing training in current child-development principles and methods.
