Experience: 20 yrs
I homeschooled my three children who are all now in college. I am also employed by Chesapeake public schools and I formerly worked for Norfolk public schools. I am currently a substitute teacher (K-5)but I have worked as a kindergarten teaching assistant as well as a special education paraprofessional. I have extensive experience as a tutor for elementary school curriculum. I have worked in a variety of public and private school settings. I have twins and I am experienced with multiples and preemies. I have extensive experience with special needs children, especially autism. I am looking to fill in for your regular child care giver or for any other temporary situations. Regular part time jobs are also welcome
