Cathleen W.
I’m a part-time teacher and writer. I used to work as a nanny and teacher all over the world. Currently, I work at KPU and in Adult Education, so I miss my little students. I’m looking to do some weekend babysitting. I have a car and a perfect driving record. I have an old dog who loves kids, so if yours like pets, I can bring her along, or not. I love to read, do crafts, go on park adventures, and beach-combing kids, or whatever they’re into (model planes? Building brains and labeling them? Yep, done it all..) I live a block from English Bay, so I can come to your place or you can come to mine if you like. Whatever is convenient for you. My mom also lives close by. She had a family daycare when my sister and I were little and loves kids, so you’d get a great "grandma" sitter too, lol.
I’ve been babysitting since I was 9, as my sister is 7 years younger than me. Then I was the neighbourhood babysitter from 11-17. I lived most of my 20s families, in Maui, and Vancouver. I became a teacher, and taught primary-high school in Seoul, Cambodia, Arctic Canada. I’ve mostly hung out my friends’ kids recently vs paid babysitting, so aside from my professional references, I can give you their numbers too for them to comment on how I am little ones.
(NB: my first aide hasn’t been updated because of covid times not offering classes, but I’ve taken it several times)
