I love children and have plenty of patience. I spent many years babysitting for neighbors and relatives. After that I taught for 23 years from preschool to high school in both regular and special education. I have two masters degrees, one in special education (learning disabilities) from Southern CT State University and the other in social work from Fordham University. For the last five years I have been driving mentally ill clients to and from the Open Doors Social Club designed for mentally ill adults. I look forward to working with children again. I engage well with children of all ages. I invite any questions you may have and look forward to speaking with you should you choose to interview me.
