I am a preschool teacher for children between the ages of 2 1/2 through 5 years of age. I have a degree from U of M in Ann Arbor with an early childhood concentration and have been teaching for 10 years. I took a break from teaching and did a babysitting job six years ago and really enjoyed it. I cared for a family of five children, but was primarily responsible for two young preschoolers. I think of them often and feel I impacted their lives in a positive way. We will always remember each other and the fun times we had! I am very fond of them.

I am a happily married mom with two daughters. Both of my girls are kind, smart, caring young women (top of their high school class) who also enjoy little ones. Many studies have been written lately about the positive impact of preschool on young children. Wouldn't it be great to have a preschool teacher care for your baby or preschooler? Especially someone who has an excellent track record at many preschools (my husband has moved us quite a bit for his job in research) and a great reference from a local family with five children. I also have many letters and cards from happy families of children I have taught over the years, as well as letters of recommendation from directors of the programs I have taught in. One of the bonuses of a preschool teacher working for you is that she is able to teach your children and have fun doing it! I frequently bring a special bag with me with educational toys that are age appropriate. The children always love that! And remember, babies grow quickly into toddlers. Time goes by so fast when the children are young. Before you know it, your precious baby is off to kindergarten! I can help with the whole process.

I have always considered myself a giver and someone who loves what she does. I am a smiley, dependable, organized soul who loves children (babies, too!). I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I stay current in the field of education and particularly enjoy early childhood conferences. The adjectives parents use to describe me are often "kindly", "warm", "responsible" (and fun!).
