I was a SHM for 27 years to 5 children and still have a 16 year old at home. I have 3 years of college in childhood education. I have also nannied part-time while raising my kids for extra income. I live on a 5-acre hobby farm. I have a big heart for children, elderly and animals. I love to cook and bake so I can make meals. I like to cook healthy meals focused on clean, nutrient dense ingredients. I do go to church regularly on Sunday mornings and like to save Sundays for my family but I’m flexible. I also have a clean driving record.

Hi! I am a current college student with about 2 years of experience with regular babysitting for close friends and family. On top of that I have worked in child development through the YMCA for the last 2 years as well. I have gained a lot of hands on experience as well as many hours of online child development training. Since my nephew was born I now have many hours of experience from kids 0-1 1/2. I have no problem cooking, cleaning, laundry, caring for pets, etc. as I enjoy helping others keep a clean space, which sometimes is difficult with the hustle of everyday life. I love being outdoors and teaching kids that you don't need a device to keep you entertained. Hoping to give a sense of peace and comfort to any families I work with!
