HI, my name is Valerie and I love working with children it is fun and rewarding work. I am organized, patient and reliable. I have 20 years' experience working with children ages 2-18 in both the home and school setting. I have some infant care experience. I have worked with typically developing and special needs children. I will toilet train, prepare meals, change diapers, do after school care, provide fun art and do light housekeeping. I am familiar with the Montessori Method and I.E.P. After school we will work on homework and if the weather is good go to the park. Right now, I take care of my elderly Mother by bathing her, cook her meals and clean house. I have studied theater and have a bachelor's degree in theology. I love to sing children's songs and read to children. I will provide references upon request. I hope to hear from you soon. Note, I have several recommendations from many former employers.

If you need recommendations contact me And I can give you the phone numbers or reference letters from these people. Thank you
