I am 49 years young, a Retired Registered Pediatric and Infant Nurse, and love continuing to care for healthy children!! This has been a blessing for me to finally feel like I am having fun at work!! Loving and sharing with these little bundles of joy, has really been exciting day after day!! There is nothing that surprises me as to what they might say or do!! I love that children are so innocent and their minds are like sponges. You can train them so quickly and in return they will do exactly what you reinforce for the most part..LOL.. I am CPR advanced life support certified with infants and pediatrics. I have a Nurse Anesthesia License that is currently on the shelf, and not active since 2015. I did administer conscious sedation to children when undergoing minor surgery.
