Speaks English, Spanish

I am a retired teacher. I also coached swim, dance and academic teams. I ran the after school program at our school for years, so I'm used to children in and out of the classroom. I recently helped my only daughter with her infant son, and of course I loved it! I love reading to children, and believe one-on-one interaction is crucial to a child's development. Currently I am a nanny to a beautiful 9-month-old baby girl (part-time) and am available nights and weekends, and on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Occasionally I have her half days on those days, when Mom needs extra help. I am an animal lover, am comfortable with giving medications when needed, and have also worked recently as a housekeeper. It's what I did as a wife for my whole life without getting paid, so I love it. I do not have those references listed but I will ask for permission to give those contacts to you if necessary. Historically I've been paid $100 for 4 hours work, but with tough times of course I'm willing to work with you. So, let me love your babies, your furry babies, and/or your home. I am available for house sitting, personal shopping, and cook a great Sunday dinner. I hope to hear from you! Melody
