About Candace

Experience: 10 yrs

I am fully vaccinated. I am a retired elementary teacher. I taught first, second, and third grades in Michigan and Nevada for 20 plus years. I have worked for about 8 families since 2018. I have a reliable vehicle. I enjoy reading to children and playing games with them. I can help children with homework. I can cook and take care of pets. My experience includes raising my son and babysitting three summers for my nieces when I was in college. I was a lifeguard in college and feel comfortable in the water. I am easy to get along with and have a fun, likeable personality.

Candace is the absolute best!!!!! Both my children love her! She saved me when I had to fire my full time nanny. She took on an extra day for me when I needed it! More importantly Candace has become like family at our home. My daughter constantly asks for her & when she arrives my daughter screams with glee. My son is still too young but I know he's excited to see her as well! My children have no allergies and Candace has introduced my daughter to foods I would never think to give her which I appreciate greatly! She has also introduced my daughter to the northern lights which has been so exciting this year given I was able to show my daughter them! Candace is never late and if she was it was by a minute. I have had to ask Candace to stay slightly later a few days due to construction on the free way making me late and she's never had a problem! She communicates everything with me so well. We work really well together and I'm so grateful she has come into my family's lives!
