Dorothy R.

Hello! My name is Dorothy. I’m 53 and a mother of a 20 year-old daughter with extensive experience caring for children of all ages especially infants and young toddlers. I am fully versed in all approaches to child care whether they include formula fed breastfed, cotton diapers or disposable diapers, sleep and activity scheduling etc.
I enjoy providing stimulating and engaging care that includes playground activity, museums, zoo visits, outdoor physical activity as well as learning and comprehension activities. I’m physically fit and able to care for older children, taking them to activities and sports as well as helping with homework and tutoring.
I have two years of college studying physics and am fluent in German and Dutch.
I have access to a vehicle as needed and a full clean driver’s license as well as full FBI and state background checks and clearances, first aid and CPR certification for pediatrics and adults, and Safer Sleep for Infants to reduce the risk of SIDS certification. Currently I am a full time infant teacher at a Center City School but would like to transition into part/full time private child care.
