I'm a retired Special Needs teacher. I live in Medford after retiring. Medford is my forever home now and I really do love it. I have had experience with all ages of children during my career. My on two adult children who are successful, the hundreds of students that I have taught or influenced for a good change during my teaching career and even my grandchildren. What I have learned is that every single moment is a teachable moment. A time when the light goes off and learning of all kinds happens. I am very particular about safety and how children spend their time. I love playing games in and outside, reading a story or even watching a movie. Life lessons are everywhere. I don't mind animals, cleaning or cooking/meal prep. I don't smoke, have my own reliable transportation and am Covid vaccinated. Thanks for viewing my profile.
