Sharon Fairborn
$24 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Thank you for considering me as a possible childcare provider for your children. I have about 13 years of experience working in childcare. My experience includes caring for children for short periods of time up to all day care-giving with responsibilities such as meals, driving to school, extracurricular activities, and doctors appointments, along with homework, outdoor activities, indoor play, and reading activities. My experience is with children age newborn-14. I love cooking healthy meals, and finding ways to get spurts of exercise in throughout the day; and I love taking advantage of good weather by doing outdoor activities during the summer months when they are not in school, along with library trips for reading and social activities. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!
