I am a stay-at-home mom to three children, ages eight, seven and two years old. Our family loves checking out the local pools, having glow/light parties at home, and snuggling up to read. I love music, movies, crafting, trying new recipes and dancing for fun!
I have been married for almost 24 years - my husband and I are high school sweethearts. ❤️ We have lived in Cedar Park for 11 years, and been in our current home for almost nine of those years. Previously we hailed from St Louis, Missouri. We also have an adorable 18 year old Norwegian Forest cat that has owned us since she was four months old.
I have a longtime background in childcare, personally as well as for work. Babysitting has been a part of my life since I was 14, and because of it - knew I was destined for motherhood. I am also the seventh out of eight children - my mother was a great example and teacher, and most definitely a saint!
I cared for my niece from when she was six weeks to four years old. (She is a thriving college student now!) I also babysat for an eight month old girl in my home when my oldest two were two years old and three months.
I taught Bible lessons, and assisted with singing, snack and playtime for the nursery and primary age children in my church for two years.
I was a school photographer (early preschool through high school age) for almost two years. I know how engaging, attentive - and sometimes persuasive - you have to be to keep a child’s attention and good spirits for any amount of time!
That said, I am open to working with any age!
I babysat through Sittercity last year (another app like Urban Sitter), but made the switch to Urban Sitter since it seems more widely-known. I still sit for a family I met through Sittercity on occasion - three boys - ages two, seven and 13. 💙
I am CPR and First Aid certified for all ages!
I currently work twice a week as a Mother’s helper for Modern Mother’s Helper, where I do anything around the home, except for childcare. (Dishes, laundry, organizing, cleaning/tidying, helping to purge items - whatever help is needed.) I absolutely love that I can ease the sometimes tiresome burden of keeping up with chores around the home. ❤️
I can provide references for my present job, as well as for babysitting!
