I love art, theatre, music, baking, holidays, animals, nature, camping, and cottage life. I have experience with all ages. I like to think I am young at heart, and that I do my best to connect with a child through their interests and hobbies. I am empathetic and believe that I would make a great caregiver for those who desire a nurturing type of nanny in their home. From cookie baking and storytelling to outdoor play and artistic expression - if we can dream it, we can try it! :) As a mother of two teen girls, I have definitely had my experience first hand. I have always enjoyed child care, at a young age I took care of my siblings and babysat up into my teen years, I did lots of volunteer work, whether it be figure skating, tutoring, Girl Guides of Canada, teaching children and teen cooking classes through Loblaws. I've always enjoyed seeing the world through a child's eyes, watching them grow and have new experiences. I promise to take care of your little one as if they were my own. I believe in a play based care, with lots of outdoor time, nature, creating through art, reading and song. With a background in the culinary arts, I still enjoy baking, healthy vegetarian cooking, and camping with my teenage daughters. I work part-time at Elmwood School, where I will be working in the after care program 12 pm to 6 pm, Monday to Friday. I currently have availability weekday mornings 7 am to 11 am. Evenings 7 to 11 pm and my weekends have 24 hour availability. I just finished caring for a baby over this past year, I started with his family when he was a month old, he ks now in daycare. It's very fulfilling helping nuture a newborn and helping out a new mother, being those extra set of hands, assisting where needed on the daily basis depending on how the day goes. It is a special and unique relationship and one I really enjoyed. As for overnights it's subject for discussion, depending on the Family's needs. If you would like a copy of my driver's license, criminal reference check, First Aid, I would be happy to share that with you I just don't feel comfortable putting that online. *Because I work in a school, I have my summers off, so I will be available for a more full-time basis from mid June to the start of September.

I am a 55-year-old single mother of a 24-year-old daughter who has some time on my hands. As a single mom, I know how hard it can be to find great child care when family does not live close by. Originally from the East Coast, I am fluently bilingual in English and French and am now looking for part-time work in the evenings and on weekends. I have been working with children since I was very young and have always enjoyed caring for children of all ages. I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Although my first aid certification is currently out of date, I am willing to take the course again if necessary. When my daughter was 9 months old, I owned and operated my own home daycare until she was almost 4 years old. I then re-entered the workforce, using my second degree in Office Management to provide for my family of two. Since working in daycare in 1991 while getting my BA in Child Studies, and then running my own home daycare I have always enjoyed working with Children. Once I because a single mom I had to find a job that provided for my family and therefore turned to my other College degree of Office management and now and a Full Time Employee of the Federal Government with National Defence.
