  About Me
 
I am a fun, energetic, outgoing person. I love to ride my bike, float down the Truckee River, hike, and Ski at Mt. Rose Ski Resort in the winter. I love the outdoors. I garden in the summer and have a small vegetable garden. I am spiritually grounded as a Christian. I have three older children, ages 21, 19 and 17. I was a stay-at-home Mom for 18 years and really enjoyed that part of my life. I was very active with my children. In the summer we would go to Lake Tahoe for the day, making sand castles and hunting for crawdads, and of course swimming. My children attended to music lessons, learning how to play drums, guitar and voice. They took swimming lessons, and were safe in and around the water. All my children loved volleyball and played on their school's team. They were also team members of basketball, wrestling and cheer leading. I loved to play games with my children, Dominoes was a favorite. I read to my children from infancy and now they are each avid readers themselves. A few years ago I went back to school to study Radiology. I have taken several courses in the medical field, one of which is CPR and First Aid. I have been a Care Giver to the senior population and catered to seniors with dementia. It was exciting when one of the seniors would remember my name. It was interesting to know the backgrounds of these people who were once doctors and Army colonels and university administrators. My interest in the Health Care field has prompted me to continue my education and learn about the human body, which is an incredible creation. If you need an above average person to care for your above average children, or those in the making, give me a call. Thank you and have a wonderful day. Sincerely, Sue

  Work Experience & Education Background
 
10 years experience, 4 references
I was a stay-at-home Mom for eighteen years. I think I can safely say that I have seen it all. I intend to care for your children as if they were my own. I will actively engage them in conversation, read to them, do fun outdoor activities that are approved by their parents. I would play board games with them, we could watch movies together, listen to music, walk the dog, go to the park, swim, walk around the Marina in Sparks. I would read to them, tuck them into bed and rub their backs.

If we would need to do homework, we would sit down and finish it up, motivating them to learn, so we could play a game afterward.

If there was an activity that the parent wanted the children to engage in, then I would follow their instructions.

Education/Training:
Associates Degree, First Aid Training, Phlebotomy, CNA, EKG Techician 
I have an Associates Degree, I took a lot of Human Relation courses. I have been fascinated with different personality types. In my daily life, I can usually recognize a person's strengths in their personalty, as well as where they need to grow. I intend to be a lifelong learner. My Granddaddy lived to be 101 and his mind was active and sharp because he never stopped wanting to learn. He was always reading and challenging himself to learn new things. He is my inspiration. A few years ago I went back to school to prepare for the medical industry. The human body is fascinating, especially the heart.
