I recently moved back home to Altona, Illinois after teaching for 10 years in Guam. I taught 1st grade for 8 years and K-3 the last 2 years. I learned I love working with preschoolers! I have babysat for numerous families since I was a teenager. I have taken care of children as young as a few weeks old up to 12 yrs old. I enjoy the infant to 3 year olds the best, but I do great with all ages. I brought back my classroom library and several educational toys. I love to read, sing, cook, make crafts, play games inside and outside, swimming, and go on adventures. I also have experience when a child is having a rough day, gets injured, or is missing mommy and daddy. I have over 15 years of experience babysitting and working with kids. I would love to invest my time in helping Read more children to grow physically, mentally, socially, and behaviorally. I want to see this next generation become great leaders with good character.
