I am a 39-year-old, Former Pro athlete with 20 years of child care experience, along side college coaching! I enjoy childcare and community care as a true testimony of my life of service. I have done it all: newborns; Twins, multiples, boys, girls, teenagers, special needs and behavior disorders. I have also traveled and provided live-in support for a family of 6. DID I MENTION my multitasking skills are GREAT- I'd make a great house manager and/or personal assistant. When I'm not supporting a family; I'm a former professional athlete & D1 Basketball Coach. Competed in 15 seasons abroad. I've coached youth basketball (think 300+ kids with only 8-10 coaches-OMG). I believe my sports background allows me to connect with children on a whole different level. I love working with youth, advocating for them and with them, being able to share my abilities and talents with them definitely makes my job worthwhile.
Toccara is the family you choose to care for your family. We were blessed to have our son her care starting in our home at 6 months. She is still part of our lives nearly 15 years later. Trust is everything to me and my son knows her as ‘Auntie T’. She will always have a place in our lives.
