Hi there! I'm a professional who has put my career on hold while we're raising kids- 10 and 8 now! They're in school, but I love being the mom who gets to volunteer, plus we have a few extracurriculars that keep me from comfortably going back to the office. I have professional experience with the state/district with all age groups including many special needs, but I really love having an infant around. I remember how difficult it was to leave my little one, I shied away from daycares because I didn't want mine to get lost in the crowd. We did try a few places but I could never get my brain wrapped around the chaos when we walked in the door, so we made a choice and here we are today! Our last little guy who spent his days with us came as a newborn, he was with us for about a year and lucky for them his parents were able to switch to remote positions, hoping we can match with a new family as well as we did with them!

We're an active family who lives in the Butte, we find fun reasons to be outside everyday, even if that means just going for a walk. During the day though it will be just baby and I, no interruptions from that one on one attention. Depending on your drop-off/pick up time, there may be an opportunity to meet in Palmer to save you the drive.

I've been fingerprinted for an FBI background check and have a current person of interest report, husband has both as well, years of CPR/first aid cert and can provide you with references. Days and times are up to you though 2-4 days/week is ideal, the rate is 70/day though we can negotiate a weekly rate if you're going to be consistent. I cannot accept assistance and the first week must be paid in advance, unfortunately I've learned from experience (sadly, a few times). If you think we'd be a good match please touch base, I'd love to meet!
