- 61 years of age with immense experience with young humans - Pretend artist and voracious reader - Gamer (PC based, MPG/ no PVP) Love games such as Diablo and WOW. I always play priests/healers/buffers) - My adult children have said I did these things well: They always knew how much I loved them and I always apologized if I did something in anger. And my daughter (a perfectionist) says that she appreciated when I shared my mistakes and how I was accountable for them. - The two things they say I did NOT do well: I rescued them too much, especially with school and I told them they were smart too much and they didn't work as hard because they knew they were smart.

I have tons of experience including raising 46 foster children, 2 of my sons friends, and my homegrowns who are now 35 and 38. No grandchildren but still hopeful. I live in the North Glenmore Park area and would like to stay in the area for 4 - 6 hour time frames. I am also available for longer term childminding and vacation opportunities for families. I have a Masters degree in SW and have served on the Calgary Police Commission. (The police check for THAT role was intense). I like small humans and I love helping families who have no Grandparents nearby.
