I have been working with children of all ages since I was 12 years old with my first job as a mother's helper for triplet boys. From there I began babysitting for this family and for additional families with 1-3 children. I also taught swim lessons at the YMCA where I worked as a lifeguard. I taught groups of about 5-10 children, their ages ranging from infants to 15. I loved being able to teach the kids that I taught swim lessons to something new and making them proud of the things they were learning. After high school, I worked at two different summer camps. One in Michigan, where I was a camp counselor and a swim instructor. I also worked at Camp Harbor View which is a summer camp in Boston Harbor for inner city youths. I was the Assistant Aquatics Instructor where I planned activities and swim lessons Read more for around 500 children a session. I received my Masters of Education from UMASS and worked as an Elementary teacher for 2 years in Massachusetts. I now work as a Special Education teacher working with children with Autism from ages 6 - 12 years old in San Diego.

We asked Maggie to move home with us to phoenix we loved her so much. She is just the right mix of fun and in control, while being absolutely trustworthy and pleasant for the parents as well.
