About Sherry

Experience: 10 yrs

I adore children and have 20+ years of experience, caring for infant to grade school ages. The past year I have cared for a smart & lively 16-month-old, but preschool starts in June, so I am looking for my next adventure! I'm searching for the perfect long-term job with another wonderful family. I specialize in infants and toddlers. In my 5 most recent positions, I've cared for 3-6-month-old infants. Talking, singing, playing, and reading are just some of the ways I ensure I am providing the appropriate level of mental and physical stimulation. Part of my responsibilities are to help ensure the children learn every day and meet their milestones. I am a CPR and First Aid certified NON-smoker. I'm pet friendly, with a cat and 2 large dogs of my own. If you think we're a good fit, I look forward to speaking with you! Thanks!
