Aloha nou! I am Priscilla, a grandmother of 4 girls. When I go out to babysit, I introduce myself as Tutu, which is grandparent in Hawaiian. I have raised 6 children of my own, the last two being twin boy and girl so I”m no beginner in the child care business. In 2003, God sent me to Indiana to help a childhood friend as a nanny. They had just adopted a deaf and blind 4 year old from Thailand and desperately needed help. Trusting no one with the child, she asked for my help. He is now 12, speaks and hears with the aid of a hearing device. In 2004, my son received orders for Iraq, and I came home to Hawaii. I transported my then 4 and 5 year old (now 11 and 12) granddaughters from school, watched them until their mother came home. Still doing it! I joined one of the most prestigious hula halaus and have just started teaching seniors the art of hula at a senior center. I was also hired by the Kahala Hotel and Resort to teach hula, lei making and ukulele. I”m very capable of watching babies as well as older children. I believe if you love children, they respond in like. I care for and treat them as my own.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
