Hi there,

I am a mother of five children and in addition to this I have been a Pediatric Nurse for over 20 years dealing with children of all ages when they are at their most vulnerable-ill. This has taught me many things I believe are a necessity when looking after any child regardless of age. Those being patience, nurturing and love. I am an Australian and have that quirky Aussie sense of humor which kids seem to appreciate. Just as important, I have a smile a mile long that is seldom far away. I simply adore kids of all ages and they seem to know it. I have spent years looking after children of all ages in my home and at their homes. People generally respect that I am a five-time mom with children of quite varying ages, (ranging from 25-4 years). They have the piece of mind knowing that I am a nurse; cool, calm and collected with whatever a child can throw at me. I am not a "TV watcher" and all of my clients can attest that (if age appropriate) I always come with a huge container or arts and crafts, stories, puzzles, drawing and coloring bits and bobs and a range of other mind stimulating activities. However, if you are happy to have your child watch TV or a DVD that is fine. Just let me know and I will pop it on no problem at all. My style of parenting while looking after your child/children is to let them play within the parameters that you have set for them. I firmly believe it is absolutely the parent's right to choose their way of parenting, and I will always do my best to stay within the guidelines that you set down.

I have exemplary references both professional and personal which "sell" me better than anything I could ever write here.

Thanks so much and I hope to hear from you soon.
