A little bit about me

I'm an experienced mother of 4, whom 2 are now independent 18+ year olds in college. Now that my kids are getting older I am looking to make a little extra money doing what I love best. Prior to deciding to stay home and take care of my own kids, I worked with adults who suffered from traumatic brain injuries. People say it's my calling to "take care and nurture" others. I grew up always being around kids younger than myself. I started babysitting when I was 12 years old. I have been CPR and first aid certified for the last 16 years (currently ran out end of Feb 2020 due to pandemic waiting to retake.) As a mom of 4, I am comfortable caring for more than one child if that is the need. I enjoy being crafty, and letting kids express themselves through arts and crafts. I am willing to do other tasks if requested. For the last year and a half I have been doing remote learning with my youngest two and three other children (grades 6th, 2nd, and kindergarten) in my home three days a week.
