About Joy

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest professional joy. With 40 years of experience as a teacher in elementary, middle and high schools, I am dedicated to fostering growth and providing reliable, compassionate support for your family. My background includes a master's degree and extensive coursework in early child development, which informs my patient and creative approach to care. Whether I am helping with homework, or we are solving puzzles or engaging in educational games, I love creating imaginative activities that make learning fun. I am happy to assist with travel needs or creative crafts and always follow your lead regarding household rules. I prioritize clear communication and will provide updates in whichever format you prefer. I look forward to the opportunity to become a trusted, positive presence in your children's lives.
