About Candice

I have spent a great deal of time over the past 20+ years working with children. Early on I was a mother's helper for my aunt and uncle with their triplet girls. Since then I have worked with 3 families long-term for 3-4 years each as well as a couple families who only needed temporary care. I have experience with ages 2 months through elementary school age. From twin babies to active elementary school age constantly on the move to different activities. Most recently I have been taking care of a sweet 16-month-old girl for just shy of a year. Sadly for me she is starting new adventure in daycare. My caretaking style could best be described as calm and nurturing. My main goal is to take my lead from the parents as far as schedule and boundaries for the kids. Communication with all the children under my care is also something very important to me. Instead of barking orders or just saying no, I take the time whenever possible to talk things through.
