A little bit about me…

Hello there! My name is Laurie. I personally don’t have any kids of my own but I have helped raise my brothers children and am currently helping him raise his 3 yrs old son. I love kids! They bring me a lot of joy. I enjoy teaching them new things, playing and reading with them. Everyone I know says I’m the baby whisperer..haha. I guess I have what it takes to rock them to sleep when no one else can. I’ve been working in physical therapy for 20 yrs and I just need a change. So I figured why not do what I love, that’s taking care of little ones. So I found a job at a Daycare that I LOVE! Unfortunately, my employers house was sold and she has to shut down her daycare so I will be without a job as of December 2021. I am heart broken and will miss these little ones so much! I am CPR and first aide certified. If you’re looking for someone to care for your little as you would..I’m your gal!
