N.   Member ID: 20982  Seeking work as a : Nanny or Babysitter or Nanny/Housekeeper or Tutor or Mother's Helper  Position Type: Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time      Join now for access this candidate's contact details       About Me   First and foremost, you should know that I am a very devout Christian, and very much look to live my life every day to honor my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ above all else. Obviously, I am not perfect, but strive to be more like Jesus every passing day. I don't believe this makes me better than anyone else, it just means I have different values, and make different decisions than some. While being a very spry older male would make me more of an atypical candidate for most of these positions, I believe that if you are looking for a VERY honest, reliable, trustworthy, educated, intelligent, bit of a neat-freak person, with a very high attention to detail and some basic maintenance/repair skills, that can multi-task and manage his time very well, then I am who you are looking for. I am very well-rounded in experience and knowledge of lots of life's details. I believe I have a lot of common sense, and am a very proficient problem solver. I enjoy spending time with my beautiful wife, racing remote control cars, and as a previous Youth Pastor, I enjoy volunteering and working in our local church. I love kiddos very much, and enjoy spending time with well-behaved (or at least close) children. I also enjoy most animals (pets). I don't care much for handling snakes, or any reptiles in general, but can be around them with no problems. Cats are my favorite, but also enjoy dogs, birds, etc. I am quite capable of taking care of most kiddos, except babies. I don't have alot of experience there. ;) But from toddlers on up, I have had lots of experience with that my entire life. I can cook most basic stuff quite well, without being a fire hazard or food poisoning risk. ;) Unless in emergency situations, I am unavailable for work on Sunday's, and because most of my extra-curricular and volunteering activities take place on Saturdays and weekday evenings, I would prefer to keep them open, as well, but I am more flexible than I am with Sundays. I don't like to miss spending time with my church family, as it helps me be the person and employee that I want/need to be, and who you would want/expect me to be. I don't, nor have I ever drank alcohol, done any drugs or used any tobacco products. My driving record is fantastic, and I can clean and maintain a house/yard with the best of them. I put no for willing to relocate, but for the right situation, I would pray about and see what the Lord had in mind. I have no previous criminal records of any kind. If these values sound great to you, and you have needs that I could fill, I would love to hear from you.
