Experience: 10 yrs
I have taken care of probably 50 plus children since I was 11 years old. I love kids and enjoy caring for them. My priority when caring for any child is their safety as well as their physical and emotional well-being. I raised my three daughters alone after my husband died. They are now 40, (would have been 39)and 36years old. I have been blessed with 7 grandchildren. I have a 22 yo grandson who has Autism and his uniqueness is enjoyed by all of us. I have taken care of him on a regular basis since he was born. I also have a 21 yo grandson, a 13 yo grandson, 13 yo granddaughter, a 10 yo grandson, a 7 yo grandson, and a 2 yo grandson ( who I care for one day a week). I have taken care of many of my friends' young children over the past 40 plus years. I did after-school daycare for 7 to 8 children during the time I was home-schooling my 3 daughters. I am, and have always been, "a kid at heart" and imagine I always will be. I'm sure that's part of why children love me.
I was fortunate to find Debra. She cared for my 3 children. She is warm and nurturing and contributed to the development and education of my children. Her dedication made a positive impact on my family.
