Hello! Here is a little background on my education and experience in the childcare field: Studied at Kaplan university from 2011-2013 and majored in early childhood education. I have 52 college credit hours and 32 of those are in early childhood. I have 10 years experience in the childcare field. I currently work in a daycare center in the infant/toddler room, and have been there for 2 1/2 years. I have a 16 hour training certificate in infant/tods/twos creative curriculum. I have experience with ages 6 weeks-3 years. I chose the early childhood profession because of the reward of teaching young children. I get to see all of these kids grow and teach them new things everyday, even if it's just something as simple as colors and letters! I am also a mother of two boys, ages 7 and 12.
