Booked by 3 families in Ferris, TX

Hello, I am Miss Nonette, I’ve worked with children from infants to school age (including children with special needs) for over twenty years. Before moving to Texas, I was a preschool teacher before switching to tutoring reading to early school-age children. I am Montessori certified, and I am First Aid/ CPR certified. I enjoy seeing children develop and flourish in whatever capacity stage. In addition, I have also worked for senior care and adults with special needs. I am allergic to cats and prefer no pets in the house. If you are looking for any of these services, such as date night, occasional childcare, senior care, or tutoring service, Please reach out to me by email at [removed] or call[removed] (It's always best to leave as detailed a message as possible, including the time and duration you need the service and your child's age.) I look forward to meeting you soon.
