About Wendy

Experience: 10 yrs

If you are looking for a unique, experienced person to CARE for your child while you are out for an evening of fun, a business obligation, or a short vacation, I am just what you are looking for. I have Special Ed. And Elementary Ed teaching degrees. I owned and operated my own licensed daycare for 20 years. I just took 'early retirement' and I am looking for a handful of families to help as needed. Safety comes first, but fun and learning are right behind that for me. When I am in charge, we will be living and learning and exploring, not parked in front of the TV. I celebrate good choices and encourage good manners and respect. I am a black belt in Karate, sing & play guitar, and love animals/nature. Music and motion are wonderful - so we will hop, skip, jump and sing through our together time. I am happy to help with homework for school-agers. My goal is to have a positive impact on your children and your family. I have been a parent coach so that is an additional option.

Wendy was amazing with my 23 year-old nonverbal special needs daughter. She was always reliable, patient and willing to go the extra mile when necessary. I highly recommend her as a caregiver.
