I'm a 56-year-old mother of four, grown children and have 13 grandchildren. NON SMOKER and love pets! I recently became an "empty nester" and love kids! I would like to be able to stay locally and help families who need to work and go on much needed dates! I drove a school bus for 17 years (5 years with special needs), a former Reserve Police Officer of 5 years, Foster Parent (11 years) and Exchange Student Parent and Volleyball Coach. My hobbies include walking, running, bike riding, volleyball and softball. I love to watch about any sport and being outdoors! I also like sitting down with kids drawing, teaching numbers, learning art, doing puzzles, playing games and making kids have fun! I don't mind preparing meals and helping with laundry services. I have a dependable vehicle to take kids to sport activities, camps, library, to the beach or an occasional ice cream treat. I'm available Monday through Fridays from 4:00am-10:00 p.m. I do have references from my previous Nanny jobs.
Valerie helped us with infant care and was highly reliable. Once our boy was off to daycare, Valerie provided care as needed. We would recommend her and hire again.
