About Linda

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I took care of 2 brothers from the time they were 9 mos and 2 years 9 mos respectively for 5 years until they no longer needed me. I loved spending time with them--indoors-games, puzzles, crafts, etc, outdoors--a passion of mine--and taking day trips to museums, parks, zoos, play spaces-----keeping them busy without the use of TV and video games.

Linda cared for our son for over 2 years - from when he was an infant until he started going to preschool full-time. She also later cared for our 4 year-old son when daycare closed during the COVID lock down. Linda is very good with children. She actively engages with them to play and learn. She will read them books, get on the floor and play games, build with Legos, play trucks, draw / do art work, etc. She enjoys being outside and takes them for long walks, play time in the back yard, etc. She will get them outside in most weather conditions. We trust her to drive the boys around locally and she would take them to parks, farms, etc. Linda was flexible with her time and accommodated our schedule whenever we needed her to come a little early or stay late.
