About Courtney

I am a former teacher and mother of five (three adults and two small children) with a Master of Education degree. I have many years of childcare experience. I'd describe my personality as dependable, empathetic and creative. I like working with kids because they are so sweet, funny and interesting. Every age has its own particular charm and every child is unique. I'm looking for a job that allows me to bring my almost 3-month-old baby along (and perhaps my 4-year-old depending on the time and situation). I'd love something part time. I started working with kids when I was just a teenager doing babysitting. In my spare time, I like to read, spend time outdoors, go to festivals and do crafts like macrame and decoupage. One thing you should know about me is that I have a 28 year span between my first and last child!! My skills include calming a crying baby, playful distraction and creative crafting.
