I have been an early childhood educator for over 10years, I went to Polk state college to get my early childhood degree, I worked for the Polk county schools from 2001 to 20012. I have taught children from ages 3 years old to after school age. I have experience with children with disabilities. I have my CPR and First aid certification, as well as my CDA. I continue to take classes to further my education to facilitate young children. My love for all individual children is why I decided to become a caregiver. I watch the children grow and see how far they have come is the most precious and amazing experience.
