Hi! I worked in early childcare for three years in my hometown of Lawrence, Kansas, during which time I worked with all age ranges from 8 week old infants to pre-K students. I also taught the summer school aged program where I was responsible for students aged between six and twelve years of age. During my employment, I received training in Safe Sleep and CPR/First Aid. I also completed over forty hours of continued training in various child development courses. I was the room lead teacher for infants aged six to twelve months for over a year before I received further training and certification to become one of the Pre-K lead teachers. I had the pleasure of assisting in the growth and development of countless wonderful children. The highlight of my job was planning an age appropriate and engaging curriculum for my students and getting to watch them learn, whether Read more it be learning gross motor skills as an infant or arts and science as a preschooler. I am an artist and nature lover, so I am more than comfortable with messes (and cleaning them up too)! In addition to my childcare experience, I am a life long animal lover and have had experience caring for multitudes of animals, including cats, dogs, birds, turtles, fish, and even farm animals, so I am very comfortable operating in households with pets!
