About Valerie

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a mom of 2 grown sons and a young, energetic grandmother of 7, ranging from 2 years to 15 years old. I have many years of experience caring for babies, toddlers, and adolescents. I have experience tutoring 6, 7, and 8th graders with IEP's. I also have extensive skills required for special needs and can perform various physical and occupational therapies. I love to have fun activities planned and also find teaching moments through play. You will feel comfortable and at peace when your children are in my care.

Valerie is a warm, friendly, responsible, care giver. We had a family emergency and required help on very short notice. Valerie came through 100% and the kids love her. She stepped in and took grandma's place without skipping a beat. We are very lucky to have her in our lives.
