I am a self motivated CNA that has mainly worked with the mentally challenged and elderly but being a mother myself to 2 step children and my own child all boys, along with taking an active role in my sisters 3 childrens lives after she passed away 3 years ago, I would like to think I am experienced in raising children as well! I became a CNA in 2002! I love working and now that my boys 19, 16,& 7 I have decided I want to get back into the work I love, and i have always found that children are comfortable with me and we bond rather quickly! I am artistic and enjoy learning , arts and craft, and love to watch children learn hands on through experimenting and projects! I also make sure my boys are responsible and well rounded, we practice manors and I use a reward Read more system with my younger child! I have found rewarding good behavior in my experience has worked for better than making a big fuss out of the things that we are not so proud of! A child wants to please and with a little guidance and encouragement it is amazing what our children become! My boys that are still in school both are honor rolls students with my 16 yr old being president of his sophomore class! I love guiding and watching my children grow and know that I have the skills it takes to inspire children to become the best they can be!
