About Laurie

As a former kindergarten and first grade teacher, I've been dedicated to nurturing children's growth and making a positive impact on their lives. Also a mom and grandma, I have taught and cared for infants and children of all ages. I enjoy exploring nature with children, playing outdoor games and sports, reading stories and playing educational games. Starting with each child's individual interests, I can teach reading and math skills in fun and meaningful ways through play, exploration, and daily routines. I also support families by offering assistance with cooking, light housekeeping, car pooling, crafts, swimming supervision. Communication is important and I'm happy to follow your preferred method. I am flexible and comfortable enforcing your household rules. My goal is creating a safe and engaging environment where children can thrive. I am excited to use my skills and experience to care for your children.
