A little bit about me

I currently work at UMPI and I really do not care for it as it is more financially based then what I'd like. I'm 54 years old and have worked in school systems caring for children, I take care of my elderly parents in home with children of my own. I live in Caribou and would like to have something closer to home, my fiancé is retired. I have excellent personal references, am financially stable, responsible and from the county. I have a degree in Communications and am bi-lingual.

A little bit about me

I live in caribou. I moved up here from NH. I’m a SAHM but before I moved here I have worked as a paraprofessional and as a behavioral technician with kids who were diagnosed with autism. I was certified in CPR and first aid but my certification has run out. I can retake classes if needed. I have 3 kids. 2 girls ages 11 and 13 and a 4mo old boy (who would be with me if hired). I have a license and reliable transportation.
