About Claire

I am a Social Worker by profession but have not worked in the field since having children. When my daughters were young, I was a stay-at-home mom and cared for other children in my home. When my daughters started school, I became very involved in the school where they attended. I volunteered 10 hours a week in the special needs classroom, five hours a week with the ESL program and was a Brownie and Girl Scout Leader for many years. Additionally, I was very involved with the PTO and a CCD volunteer. After my kids were settled in school, I started substitute teaching but didn't find it very gratifying because I was always at different schools never having a chance to know the children. 11 years ago, I took a full-time position as a lunch lady at a high school originally for convenient school hours, but continued because I loved being around kids all day! After work, I was employed by a family who needed their children met at the bus, homework help and general fun. I'm choosing not to return to the high school in the fall as they have outsourced a new catering company. I know I'd much prefer to be a caregiver to children, I can spend more time with and truly help to make a difference. I am dependable, loving and trustworthy, and fingerprinted and background checked as it is a requirement for those working in the school system. My daughters are in college now and I have a lot of time on my hands and I believe there would be no better way to spend it than caring for your children. My commitment and loyalty to you and your family would be very strong as I hold these two factors in the highest regard. I look forward to hearing from you and to hopefully becoming your child/children's caregiver.
