Hi im Brooke! I have been watching kids or teaching kids for now a majority of my life. Started of course like most babysitting when young... loved it! Watch two girls for 2 years in HS and on and off in college 2 Days a week....picked up from school took to activies, dinner etc. Taught swim lesson for 4 years Coached Cheerleading *** Graduated KU with Bachelors of Art Degree Worked as Kidergarten Aid in Olathe school for 1 year Went back to college now in Denver Colorado ***Graduated Teaching Degree focusing on Art Education Moved back to KC worked as Substitue teacher (not just in art) in Olathe, Blue Valley and Shawnee Mission. — I stopped teaching bc I had some major health issues and had to be in and out of the hospitals or Dr a bunch! Been nannying or babysitting the same few families for now almost Read more 6 years... love those babies! I love kiddos!  I have been involved with kid activities since I was a kid myself.  In middle school I had a camp at my house during the summer for a couple of weeks and for 2 years it had 15 plus kids attend.  In high school I was a nanny for 2 girls in elementary and middle school.  I watched these girls for 5 years and I still keep in touch with them today.  In high school and into college I was a lifeguard during the summer and the kids really took a liken to me.  I also taught swim lessons to little kids for 4 years.  After high school I help coach competitive cheerleading and helped out with the camps when i came home from college.  I went  to college at KU and  I studied art.  In 2006 I got my BFA in Textile design.  After I graduated I worked as a kindergarten aid for year before I realized that I wanted to be a teacher.  I left KC and went to Denver and got my teaching degree there.  I know am certified to teach art for all grade levels.  I am still looking for a full time teaching position but for the time being I am a substitute teacher for elementary and middle school in Olathe and Blue Valley.  As you probably can tell I love being around kids....because I am a big kid at heart!
