I am 34 years old and I have been taking care of children since I was around 10 years old. First I took care of my siblings, and as I got older I began to babysit for neighborhood children. After high school, I moved to Prague, Czech Republic for college and lived there for 11 years. During that time I worked for a babysitting agency, was a nanny to a couple families, and then started teaching full-time in a British Preschool/Primary School. I taught for 6 years at the same school, and taught all ages ranging from infant to 12 years. I was also in charge of directing the school plays and Christmas concerts every year, and taking the children on week long trips to the mountains twice a year. When I met my husband, I moved to PA and worked at a private daycare for 1 year, as a Read more toddler teacher and also a preschool substitute. Since moving to Orlando, I have been an infant teacher for almost 3 years. Now I teach kindergarten at a hybrid homeschool 2 days a week.
