I am: - energetic/fit - trustworthy/emotionally mature - friendly/positive - flexible/adaptable - humour goes a long way I raised my son on my own with love, good judgment, humour and discipline through positive reinforcement while as well volunteering at his school. As the eldest daughter, I 'helped' my mother raise my 4 siblings, including twins. I believe we have something to learn from children of all ages. Respect is taught and earned and is a two way street so it is key to all good relationships. I was taught "a place for everything, everything in its place" and am therefore neat, organised and a good multi-tasker. Keeping and sharing the responsibility of a tidy home is part of bringing up a responsible little being who feels part of the process and respects it while growing up. I cook and am comfortable in the kitchen. I can prepare meal plans and shop accordingly. I drive (standard as well as automatic) so can also run personal errands and take children to appointments and activities outside the home. I would like to find a loving family that believes in mutual trust and respect, who will recognize my assortment of skills and attributes. Yes, I am born, raised, educated in Canada. I am offering my services because I believe in and trust that our future is about children and the positive environment in which they are growing up. My hope, will and desire is to find the right family in which to encourage this. Thanks for taking the time to read through my profile. 😊

I do not view myself as "the cleaning lady" but rather as a member of your family who assists you because daily upkeep can be trying. I trust that you view me this way as well.

Best of luck to us all and kind regards Marie☺ Additional Experiences/Qualifications: I also have 25+ years of personal assistance experience in both office and for private professionals, so am not limited to maintaining a household.
