A mother of 5 grown children. and 5 amazing grandchildren. I spend a lot of time with my grandkids and they spend the night with me often as well as go on adventures with grandma. They keep me young! I'm also a private respite provider for families with disabled children/adults. I was with one family with 17 years and I am still caring for an autistic young man in CA on occasion. I've been with him for 10+ years. He's a cool guy! I am trained in tube feeding, nebulizer treatments, and administering various medications, I've taken several courses in working with Autism, and I am very comfortable with infants. I have references upon request. Experience with infants/toddlers while working with the Head Start Program for 3 years besides raising and homeschooling my own 5 children. I would love to do date night/day sitting as I work full time at Woodland Highschool 5 days a week so my time is limited. I am off at 3:45 Monday through Friday. I'm available most weekends. 24 hours.
