I am a Registered Nurse since 1987. I have always been a pediatric nurse and I currently work as a Certified School Nurse in a public elementary school. I also work a summer session every summer at a camp for children with type 1 diabetes and have been doing this for 6 years. I am single and the mother of 3 children, two grown and one in 8th grade who has a history of congenital heart disease with two open-heart surgeries as a newborn. He also has ADHD. So I know what it is like to have a child who is seriously ill, albeit relatively healthy now. I have experience working as a pediatric home care nurse for many years with an agency taking care of children who require skilled nursing care in the home. It was through working with my pediatric patients with health problems, disabilities, and special needs that I realized that there is a need for their parents to have a qualified babysitter whom they can trust will be able to take care of their child (and siblings, if any). I work full-time but have availability some evenings and weekends to babysit for your special needs child (and siblings, if any) so that you can get some well-deserved respite. Since my own child is at his father's on alternate weekends, I can even provide overnight care should you want to get away. I obviously love children as my entire career has been spent taking care of them. I will interact and play with your child as if he/she was my own (I miss those days!) I would love to babysit for you in the evening or on the weekends so that you can enjoy some personal time knowing that your child is in good hands. Of course in the summer and during school vacations, I have a lot more time to babysit for you. I have a criminal background clearance which is required to work in the public schools and can provide a criminal background check for you. I am also happy to take care of your pets or plants as well. Thank you for your consideration.
