About Joseph

Experience: 10 yrs

I am an outdoor recreation professional turned jack-of-all-trades handy human who humors and helps kids and their families. These days I help folks organize their living spaces and landscape their yard in the mornings, and I care for kids in the afternoons. I am prone to eating plants (if they are safe) from my clientele's yards, work on various crafting projects (free form baskets are one of my favorites, with strong interests in fabric dyeing, whittling, cooking in fire pits, and hide tanning with older kids and their parents). I also do enjoy indoor time, with a big emphasis on playing imagination games, card/ board games, thought experiments, and hide & seek. I am okay with some screen time, especially if it's done while I am working on some homemaking tasks, but I benefit the most from an interactive relationship with my clientele. As a neurodivergent human I tend to bond with neurodivergent children. Looking for one to three weekdays to work with a family. Reach out!

Before moving away, Del took our kids out during the summer during the day for a week right after the school year ended and before the school year started. They would come home with tales of finding crayfish, picking Chanterelles, and building shelters. We miss him and stay in touch.
