I have been watching kids for my family and friends for many years (oldest is 13, youngest is 3 years right now). After getting pregnant, my husband and I decided I wanted to be home more with my children. Unfortunately, we lost our pregnancy, but my parenting values are still here and working! I'be previously been certified in first aid and CPR (they are currently expired!). I believe in healthy meals, communication, and finding fun ways for kids to learn. I've had a lot of success working with kids, being creative in how we interact to get them to learn life lessons- respect, picking up after yourself, sharing, etc.
