I love kids. I value the wonder of watching them learn and discover new things as they develop physically, socially, and emotionally. It really does take a village to raise a child, and I'd like to be a helpful part of yours. I have a positive outlook on life. I've lived in Cary/Raleigh since 1980, attended Wake Co schools, then NCSU, majoring in Applied Mathematics/Physics/CS. I have a long career in IT, R&D, and teaching. I'm retired and an empty-nester with years in child advocacy, tutoring, volunteering, special needs training, and nannying. I have a new car, I am insured, and have a clean driving record; clean background check; I love pets. I've done dog rescue for the past 25 years; Yes, I can help with homework. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or if I haven't covered something you feel I should have.

    Alison helped took care of my household of 7 cats for a week while my husband and I went out of town for a week. Our regular pet sitter could not watch the cats for us this time, and we couldn't cancel our trip to Jamaica. We were unable to find a pet sitting service that was available in our area at the last minute. This was my first experience with Care.com - Alison was a dream. Our pets were in good hands. We got to enjoy the sun and sea. I recommend her highly.
