I am a single mother of 3 grown kids. Two are away at college, the other is a HS Junior and is never home. I am basically an empty nester. I miss having young kids around and I am looking to make some extra money to help with expenses. I am available most evenings and weekends. I especially love babies and toddlers. I also have a dog and am comfortable with pets. I am also happy to assist with elderly for companionship as well as errands. I was an elementary school teacher as well as a pre-school teacher for many years. I changed careers yrs ago because as a single income household my teaching salary was not enough. I work in the financial services industry currently from 8-4 daily.
I have worked with Children for 12 years. Childcare On Navy bases. Infant to school age. I have a Child Development Associates and CPR training, Star Customer Service training, worked with children who have Autism or other extra developmental needs with communication and social skills. I am currently the Kid’s Ministries Director at my church. I have a 2 year old daughter that would need to come with me while I provide care for you and your children. I have also cleaned houses for over a year and I love animals.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
