Hi my name is Thalia! Every day working with children provides an opportunity to teach them life lessons, useful skills, and important knowledge. Careers involving children offers the privilege to positively influence social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development! Working with kids can be one of the most challenging, yet rewarding, careers. As you care for and teach children, you'll build strong bonds that will stay with you forever. Making an impact on their lives, helping them grow and learn about the world around them. I am reliable, trustworthy, and I get told multiple times “kids love Thalia” As a parent I understand how this thing goes and I wouldn’t want anyone treating my child how I do not treat my own. Feel free to ask any questions!
