About Troy

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

My name's Troy. I'm 32 years old & have been around children my entire life. The middle of five kids (and now a relatively new dad) myself, as well as the son of a 3rd grade special-education teacher, I love to find ways to help kids grow and find happiness within each day. I am able & willing to provide supervision, school tutoring, outdoor activities of your choosing, & confidence boosts to children with social issues of any kind (I used to be an extremely shy kid). I've spent a good many years working in a wide variety of settings: a library, green energy insulation shop, with teenagers in a residential rehab center... somewhere along the line I was even a bank teller! Currently, I work with adults who have developmental disabilities, and recently returned to college. I aim to have a direct, positive impact on others, be it child or parent. Allow me to provide help for you & your children, regardless of situation. I have a clean criminal and driving record. Feel free to call anytime
