Hello, I am happy to introduce myself. I am a 50 year old mother of two and a long time BC resident. My son now attends high school and my daughter is in the business program at UBC, Vancouver. I am a freelance writer with the flexibility and availability to pursue part time, daytime care work. I have earned a BEd and am a certified educator who also tutors on the side. My specialties are Communications and English. Having worked as a lifeguard for ten years, taught swimming lessons and served as an instructional supervisor, I am also a proven swim teacher with first aid training in my background. My working experiences include recreation instruction with special learning infants, toddlers, school aged children and adults. For approximately a two year time frame I helped with a residential cleaning business and can honestly say I am a stickler for a clean and well maintained living space-our homes should ideally be a place of sanctuary where we find peace and restoration. To that end I enjoy helping working parents maintain that balance on the home front. I know what it's like to work a 60+ hour work week and then come home to fulfill all the duties required there. These are the stressors that weigh on working parents and it gives me purpose knowing that I can help alleviate some of those demands. I take pride in my work, love children, have experience with pets, have never been a smoker and prefer an active, outdoors lifestyle. I would welcome any queries and invite open conversation. I now live in Saanich and am willing to travel thirty minutes out and back give or take depending on the assignment. Thanks for your time. I wish you well on your search for a good fit.

As a teen I earned my baby sitting and emergency first aid training and worked as a sitter until I was old enough to work as a lifeguard, swim instructor, instructional supervisor and head guard in New Westminster. I have taught children for twenty years in public and private school settings as well as in the recreation arena. For two years I served with the Simon Fraser Society working as a recreation coordinator for toddlers and school aged children with special needs. For two years I worked as a nanny for a young family with a newborn and toddler son and daughter. I am a mother of two academically sound and physically fit children who enjoy an active lifestyle and retain an open, compassionate mindset. Additional Experiences/Qualifications: Salary is dependent on the demands of the day. As I possess a sound working, teaching, communications, first aid and residential maintenance history, and because I am a proven and professional problem solver with a natural talent in household management and child care, I would appreciate a salary or hourly wage commensurate with my abilities. I work to exceed all expectations and ensure that we have a clear, mutual understanding of the job assignment and all the duties required. I work to establish professional and compassionate working relationships and would consider all child care as an extension of my own familial care and concern. I prefer a busy, multi tasking working environment and appreciate a challenge. I have also been a gardener all my life with a thorough understanding of annual, perennial, organic vegetable gardening, fruit tree and pest control care.

Completed BEd with honors and specialty in Early Childhood Education. Completed a triple minor in Kinesiology, Psychology and English. UBC & SFU. Completed Business Writing Certification and Creative Writing Certification. I am a certified educator in BC. Master Gardener.

I love working with kids. I have been a licensed ECE for over 20 years but have many years of experience prior to that. I am looking to do a nanny position as I prefer a comfy home setting as opposed to a centre environment. Ideally, I am looking for part-time (almost full-time) from 630 am -200 pm
