Children need love and security. Being a mother of four children I understand the need to nurture and help children thrive in their own environment. I was a nanny for a family of three before I stepped out of the workforce to focus on my own children for a few years. Now, as my children have grown I am ready and able to get back to assisting others with their children. I have been CPR certified three times, the most recent from 2018. I have had first aid training certification since 2012 several years ago, and my kids have kept me up to par in that area. For the past several years I taught preschool children from ages 3 to 5 years in age through a mothers co-op group. It was rewarding and fun to plan out the activities and teach them. The past two years I was in a Read more Music Makers program centered around newborns to 5 year olds. It helps motivate children through music and I have relied on its curriculum multiple times to entertain the children. I have three years experience playing piano and can oversee practice time with the children.
