A little bit about me

Hello!
I’ve been working with children in daycare centers and in individual families, every time is a different experience but what is common is that I love children and they feel it and generally are very friendly and open to me. I like to cook and try to cultivate healthy eating habits though never make a problem of it. I clean and do laundry as a house asks for. I don’t drive currently. I love taking children for nature walks, active sports games, playing and learning at home. Through experience in teaching art classes and working in daycare centers I’ve developed passion toward assisting children in developing their natural skills and characters through art, active play, song, dance, creative crafting sessions, weaving it in daily routine along with household chores. I’m at the service of the needs of every individual family I work for and looking forward to serve you.

A little bit about me

As a college nursing student, I have a strong foundation in health and safety, ensuring that your children will be in knowledgeable and capable hands. I am certified in both CPR and First Aid, providing an added layer of security and preparedness in case of emergencies. Your children's safety is my top priority. I have my own transportation, which ensures that I can be punctual and dependable for all your childcare needs. This also allows me to take your children to activities, and appointments, or run errands if needed. I bring a wealth of experience in babysitting, working as a summer camp counselor, and volunteering at a community center preschool. These roles have equipped me with the skills to engage with children of various ages and backgrounds, ensuring they have fun while being well cared for. My passion for nursing and caregiving extends to my approach with children. I am patient, compassionate, and committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment.

A little bit about me

I'm a retired western MA K-2 teacher and reading specialist (3 yrs subbing, 1 yr K, 1 yr grade 2, 15 years grade 1). Prior to that, I was a doctor's assistant in many specialities but left to return to school at age 41 and become a teacher so i could be home with my children when they had no school. I also became a professor at a local university for a short time. I retired in 2015 from teaching and moved to Wedtport, MA in 2018 helo with my two grandchildren., ages 7.5 and 3.5. I'd be very open to tutoring as well as being a part- time nanny. I will always love learning and passing that along. I love reading, arts and crafts, the arts, and music and have done all with not only my own children, now adults, but with my wonderful grands! I'm a Gemini so am always communicating and embrace new experiences.
