A little bit about me

Mom to many including twins (now almost 15)! I also have a 6 year old grandson and an almost 1 year old grandson. I owned my own day care business years ago and have recently been a substitute teacher for all grades including special needs children in Sevier County for the past 3 years. I love doing anything outdoors. I like to try new things and new places. I don't watch TV and I love kids - that's why I had so many! Now that mine are almost all grown up I am looking to share my love for kids with a family who would really love my help~!

"My name is Tabitha Stolz and I work at Northview Intermediate School in Kodak, Tn. I have known Kristie Andrews personally and professionally for 5 plus years. I think she would make a great asset to Sweetpeananny. Kristie not only has a passion for working with children but will always go above and beyond anything she is asked to do. She is caring, nurturing, well educated, and always puts the needs of the children first. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me."

A little bit about me

I just moved to Knoxville for year-round school at TAPC! I love working with kids and I have for quite a while (5years). I’m free spirited and love to have fun, kids learn through play so it’s important to me that kids are enjoying themselves and engaged not just having screen time. I go to school Tuesday and Thursday mornings getting off around 1 other than that my schedule is pretty open.
