Experience: 30 yrs
Nurturing children comes naturally to me, and I've spent the last 30 years watching them learn and grow. My goal is to positively impact each child's life while providing families with reliable care. I'm patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I have experience with special needs children. I communicate with parents at pickup and provide regular updates via text or phone call, and I follow your preferred communication method.. I'm comfortable caring for up to 4 children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens and beyond. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I look forward to bringing my experience and passion to your family.
Doreen was communicative, punctual and kind. She went out of her way to understand each of my kids’ nuanced interests and meet them exactly where they are. They loved her and look forward to seeing her again.
