A little bit about me

Hello!
I am a certified childcare director and teacher for infants -age 8. I have 10 years experience teaching infants-preschool, and was an afterschool supervisor 5-13 year olds for 4 years. My experience includes special needs children and adults in a wide variety of medical and non medical needs. For example I have been an autism play therapist, an adventure and afterschool buddy for autism, epilepsy, OCD, PURA, Downs Syndrome, Angelman, Retts, ...

I am a nurturer and I love caring for infants to age 100! I have experience in eldercare, too!

My best experience is from being a mom. My children are now in their 30's! As the saying goes time does fly.

Im a cooperative style teacher, nanny and parent. Children have a voice, are listened to and respected.

I specialize in open creative play and adventure/exploration in a child's day.

I am a certified counselor in crisis and trauma recovery for children and adults.

I look forward to hearing from you about your family.

Lillian L. - Seeking Work in Salem

Babysitter Available in Salem, OR: Lillian L.

Hi there! I’m a 19 year old getting ready to start attending community college within the year. I’m extremely patient, kind, and I have experience with some pretty high-tempered kids. I’m very into arts and crafts and I believe it’s a sure way to entertain children, if there’s one thing that they love it’s to create something that they’re proud of, and showing it off to their parents. If you have any questions feel free to ask from the get go. (:
