About Susan
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I am enjoying retirement but after a long career spent working with or on behalf of children, I find I am missing spending time with kids. I am a mother and a grandmother to 2 precious grand-babies in NY. I have a Masters degree and my professional career was in social work and education. ***NOTE: I would love to help you with your child care needs but am only accepting occasional/date night evening work at this time.*** My preference would be to care for little ones (I LOVE babies!) but am open to caring for older children as well. I have a loving, caring heart and am patient and comfortable with kids. I have volunteered as a baby holder in the MMC NICU. Given my experience as a mother and the maturity that comes with having lived for more than a few decades, I have the capacity to be fairly unflappable! *Note: Non-smoker. Strictly follow all CDC recommendations. Fully vaccinated/boostered.

Susan was caring and patient with my children, communicated well with me and was a joy to have. She is experienced and has a soothing demeanor. I would definitely ask her to care for my children again.
