About Susan

Hello! I am looking for a full or part-time position in which I might support your family with both childcare/teaching and cooking, or just one or the other. I have a Masters in Education with 30 years experience teaching 4-10-year-old children in schools and summer programs; I spent many years as well caring for toddlers in daycare programs and at home. Warm and playful, reliable and resourceful, I delight in the spirit and company of children. I particularly love reading, making art and being with children in nature, and playing games and developing activities which engage their imaginations and nourish their creativity. I am also a passionate and skilled vegetarian cook; my menus include soups, stews, grains, legumes, cooked vegetables and fresh salads, many with Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Indian and North African origins and flavors. Finally, I love animals and have three of my own. I look forward to speaking with you!
