About Suzy

Experience: 11 yrs

Caring for children has been my life's work. I taught in elementary schools for three years, worked in a daycare, ran my own home daycare for nine years, and currently work as a preschool associate and have for 11 years. My passion is to care for infants and babies! They bring so much joy! I love to play with them and talk to them. For older children I love to read to them, play games, paint, etc. I follow parents lead on redirection of behavior. I believe in listening to children to find out their interests and feelings.

Suzy watched my three girls that are all on the autism spectrum and was fantastic! We had a late night out and a long drive home from our event and it was so wonderful to come home and have them all tucked in and sleeping peacefully! My verbal daughter told me she was really nice and played playdoh with her and her sisters. I know good and well that my girls can be a handful and she handled it perfectly. She was also on time and great at keeping communication from the start of the hiring process all the way to the end of her time watching my kids. She is the first babysitter my kids have ever had outside of a few select close friends and family members. It was an all around great first time experience having a babysitter in general and with Suzy herself.
