Hi Parents. I am retired and enjoy dog minding at my home as well as occasionally helping my daughter out with her 3 year old, my first grandchild. I have a collection of interesting toys, games, puzzles, books and craft that I take when child caring, based upon age of children. I am an outgoing person and enjoy interacting with kids of all ages and cultures. I'd love to meet you and your family.

Childcare Experience

I have been babysitting for 25 years. I first worked through the agency, Dial-an-Angel in Sydney. I have also looked after children in their home while parents were overseas on holiday.. The diversity of young children continues to intrigue and delight me. I have also had my first grandchild who is now 3 1/2 and I occasionally help my daughter with babysitting.
