Margie R. - Big Bend Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Margie R.

Full-Time, 10 + Years of Experience

Hello: My name is Margie. I have a small Day Care I call "Grandmama's House" I would love to watch your child/children anytime. Drop ins / Daily / Weekly / Overnights. I have been a Preschool Teacher, Substitute Teacher, Special Needs Teacher, Sunday School Teacher and home schooled my two grandsons.
Before I moved here, I ran a 24-hour 7-day a week daycare out of my home for 7 years in Tennessee. I now live in Big Bend on what I want to call a "Mini Farm". We have Chickens, Rabbits and Dogs. And we are looking to add more animals in the future
I am a mother of three grown boys with families of their own and a Step-mother to three additional grown boys. I miss the mothering. I am grandmother of seven beautiful children. At the present, I watch four of my grandchildren ages 10, 8, 3 and 1 year when needed. I also do before and after school care. Meals and Snacks are provided. I would love to spoil - I mean care for your child/children. I like to do age appropriate field trips when ever possible. There are lots of age appropriate learning toys for inside and out. My most favorite thing is rocking and singing to the young ones. My granddaughter never talked until she was well over 2 years old. But Boy could she sing up a storm, it was wonderful. I would love to have an interview with you any time
