About Theresa
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi! My name is Theresa and I just love children! I have been babysitting since I was 11 years old (actually cared for newborns and toddlers!), was a nanny for a 6-month-old when I was 16 years old, later worked at a daycare in the newborn/toddler rooms, and being with children didn't stop there! I earned my degree in Elementary Ed/Early Childhood from Kutztown University in 1996 then taught 3rd grade and kindergarten for 7 years until I decided to have a family of my own. My two boys are my pride and joy - they are 17 years old and 16 years old! After being a stay at home mom for many years I jumped back into teaching.... substituted for 8 years in all grades, doing long term positions too. Currently, I am babysitting and tutoring part time. I love to be a part of children's lives and watch them grow mentally and physically. People often compliment me when they see me interact with children... some even say I'm a "Baby Whisperer"! :) Contact me

Theresa has been helping our family for almost a year now and we love her. It's the best feeling in the world when I see my daughter laugh and smile as Theresa walks through the door. She's always on time, gives me helpful advice whenever I ask, and gives me peace of mind when my husband and I are at work.
