Welcome message:

Patient Special needs experience Multiples experience. Mostly with infants and young aged toddlers. Physically fit and willing to do activities in or outside. Own transportation and valid drivers license. Have references upon request. My home is set up for childcare and I’m also willing to travel. Which ever preferred. I love kids. One of my favorite moments was getting a two year old with a medical disability the chance to ride her first amusement ride. I was able to accompany her on the ride with her oxygen tank. We were told no by workers at the carnival. Luckily I was able to locate the manager and find a ride safe enough for her to ride. I am also on nannylane and sittercity.
