I have actively 11 years of experience, but have been involved helping, mentoring, babysitting, etc. throughout the last 24 years. Childcare and being a mom is my full-time job. I am very dependable. I work with two teachers if I have an appointment during summer months to watch the kids in my absence. I have a great home for children. I have owned my home since the day it was built and the entire lower floor is dedicated to children. I have an indoor playground with swings from the ceiling, toys, and slides. I have an out door playground lined with rubber mulch and lots of equipment and toys to play with. I have a gym for the kids to do baby's first workouts. I start a home based curriculum program with kids in the year of their second birthday to assist in preparing them for kindergarten. I charge $27.00 per day. That includes all food, snacks, etc. The only items not included are diapers, wet wipes and formula. For babies I home cook all the baby food as well. Please contact me if you are interested in interviewing me. Thank you, Tara
