I have recently retired as a school psychologist and have worked with children in grades pre-school-8 for the last 17 years. I am also a professional chef and a parent. What better combination could you get in a caregiver! Since retiring I have provided child care for several families, including homeschooling a 3rd and 8th grader during the pandemic. I can help boost your child's social and academic development and can run facilitated play groups with friends. I know a lot about nature, love doing arts and crafts and I have a Culinary Arts degree if your children love to learn how to cook. I am also good with housework and have coached and played many sports. Perhaps my best child care experience comes from raising my two amazing daughters with my wife, as well as caring for my wonderful grandchildren and a multitude of nieces and nephews! You can be assured that I will treat your children with the same love I give my family!

Frank took care of my three children for a week while we were visiting Massachusetts but needed to work from home. Frank was caring, kind, and gentle. He doted on our 18 month old boy, pushing him around on a toy car to the delight of my son. He did fun cooking activities, crafts, and science projects with my 4yo and 7yo girls. Our vacation rental did not have a vacuum, so Frank brought one from his home. He taught my kids about volcanoes, water cycles, dinosaurs, and bugs. They spent lots of time outdoors.
