Hello Parents, My name is Lois and I love taking care of children! I'm a native New Yorker, but have come to call San Diego home for many years now! Why hire me? Years before obtaining my bachelor's degree in Behavioral Sciences, I had acquired 30 units in Early Childhood Development. I had received a Family Support Specialist certification. I was a foster mom for five years. The first two years I received "my babies" directly from the hospital! I had toddlers through thirteen years old in my care. For approximately 1.5 years I worked for the Sweetwater Union High School District, including middle school. I helped to facilitate small groups of five children with their reading comprehension. I find tutoring children to be very satisfying, especially during the times I was able to bring children's grades back up to speed; grade level. The greatest compliment I ever received was given to me by a fourth grade child who said to me "Miss Lois, you inspire me!! While new to Urbansitter, I have a 5 star rating from another platform! I'm available during the daytime hours, Monday - Friday. I am interested in working 15-25 hours per week and prefer being paid in cash. I look forward to hearing from you! Warm regards, [removed].
