My current family will be moving October 1st for a new position. I am now looking for a full time M-F or 3 days a week position (8 to 10 hrs a day). I am a cross between Mary Poppins and Nanny McPhee. Toddlers are developers and look to explore books, ideas, and test the boundaries of their new found world. Just a heads up they repeat this process in the teen years. I love to teach and help them develop within the safety of their new world. New horns are to be kept safe and spoken to often. Hugs and songs should fill their world so that they know they are loved. I have completed the Be Strong Family Series and often assist with seminars. I have taken both CPR /Adult/ Infant I have also completed several first aide classes. Along with my foster parent training, I have completed Read more and complied with their qualifications for special needs child care.
