About Chere
Experience: 10 yrs
** Looking for occasional work to fill in for your regular caregiver or for date nights. I have 10 years of experience in Early Childhood Education, 15 years in Community Organizing and Social Services, raised three sons and am a grandmother to 3; a 6 month y. o. girl, 7 y. o. girl and 9 y. o. boy. The older kids live in Virginia and I miss being around little ones. I love children and find young people fascinating. My specialty is babies! My hobbies are social dancing, travel, volunteering, reading, hiking, sewing and crafts. I can help with Light Housekeeping, Cooking/Meal Preparation, laundry, homework supervision and crafts. I'm looking for occasional opportunities to care for your children. I would like to make a little money to augment my retirement resources. I have completed the on-line component of the Red Cross Infant-Child CPR class and am in process with the Criminal History check. Comfortable with pets, non-smoker.
Most recent review
Chere is wonderful. She has watched our two young boys for date nights, occasional full days, and helps with the boys when we go out of town. We recently had a third child and she has been so helpful during the newborn transition time. Chere is calm and engaged with the kids, and she is always thinking of new activities to do with them. The kids love having her over and look forward to “Chere Time”. We trust her completely with the care of our kiddos and are so glad that she is in our lives!
