I am a RN with active MI nursing license. BLS and CPR certified. Have 8 years of child care experience. Most of my experience was with infants and toddlers but I do have a couple years of preschool experience. I was the lead teacher for an infant classroom in local daycare and also the lead teacher in a toddler classroom with a migrant head start. I also have experience as a teacher's assistant in a preschool classroom. Do have my child care associate certification. I very much enjoyed caring for children but nursing was an interest as well so I went after my nursing degree. I am now in a position where I would like to make some extra money and child care seemed like the natural choice given my history and vast experience with caring for children. I think quick on my feet, am a great multi Tasker and Read more have a compassionate and kind heart with an outgoing personality. I am a smoker. I am trying to quit. You have my word that I will never smoke around your children or at anytime while on the job.
