About Wendy

Experience: 10 yrs

27 years experience working with children. Five years with 1 and 2-year-olds, 22 as a director in an after school program with kindergarteners through 5th graders. A part of my job was providing healthy snacks and encouraging children to try new foods. I organized art activities, cooking and outdoor games, always taking into account what the children are interested in. I come from a large family so I'm comfortable taking care of different ages. My family and I have had many pets through the years and am very comfortable with animals. I have received an award for working with children with special needs. I have worked with kids with difficult tempers and children with high to low functioning autism. I have gone to work shops for child care so I am familiar with different types of children's needs and behaviors. Leaving my current job is the hardest thing I've ever done. The children and families I worked with were like extended family. I've learned a lot about children and supporting families and my community. I've raised an 18-year-old boy and have helped family with raising kids so I am capable of taking care of infants and toddlers.

Wendy was the Director of the kids after school program at my children primary school. I absolutely love Wendy. She took care of my 3 children. She has an amazing connection with the kids, she is responsible, fair and fun. She is such a loving and caring person. She pays attention to the kids in every way: safety first of course, but also she makes sure they eat healthy food, and they have fun! She has so many years of experience with a large number of kids, with different personalities and different ages... and she makes it work! But the main thing about Wendy is her heart... She has the biggest heart! There can be no better person to take care of your children!!!
