Experience: 10 yrs
I am an energetic, reliable mother of 4 and have 40+ years of experience of caring for infants through adults. Throughout HS and College, I worked as a water safety instructor at camps for special needs youth and adults as well as volunteering as a counselor for MDA summer camps. I enjoy children of all ages, and love doing age appropriate activities, crafts, music, and adventures! I am an organized multi-tasker, and am willing to do additional tasks if needed. Let's meet to see if we are a good fit. :-)
I have a hard time describing Teri because wonderful just doesn’t scratch the surface! Teri was with us several days a week for two years until our son went to preschool. She is punctual, communicative, caring and loving. She played a huge part in our son’s confidence and communication. As a mom of four grown children (plus a nanny over the years for many more!) she truly has the cheat code! When she first started we had some struggles with our daughter after preschool. Teri offered to step in and help, which was an absolute lifesaver. Over the years Teri curated so many fun adventures for both of our children. We are so grateful for the years we had with her and both of our kids look forward to future “Ms. Teri adventures.” They were never complicated, but always special. Things like splash pads, calm beaches, picnics, story time, kid friendly hikes and more. She always has a plan and asked if we were comfortable before acting on any of the ideas. I can honestly say I don’t know how we would have survived the last few years if we didn’t have her support. Both of our kids are happier and better adjusted because of Teri. Our kids talk about her all of the time and all the fun they had. If you were lucky enough to have her care for your children, you are blessed!
