Well, my background is that I graduated from Western with a Bach. degree In Social Work. I assistant managed an adult foster care home for four years in Kalamazoo caring for them professionally, medically, and behaviorally. I would involve them in skills classes to teach them life's lessons. I have waitress/server experience for ten years in my back pocket as well, and for the last half year have had a desk job away from my 11 month old boy and am looking for a way to incorporate a kid friendly environment into my career/life. I am a step mama to a 4 yr. old girl, and love children. They are simply what is important to focus on and is now my goal in life. To be a great Nanny or sitter for kids. It's not easy when parents aren't there and I remember a few interesting sitters I had that Read more really shaped some of my focus in life as a kid. I want to teach kiddos life lessons through fun games and activities, cook them healthy snacks and meals show them great life skills to take with them when they meet new friends.. And just plain have fun. I am trained in first aid and CPR. Any other questions please feel free to ask. Oh my hobby is art, and love creating art with kids.
