I am a mother of four, grandmother of three. I was previously a special education teacher before I became a mom. When my youngest was two I then had a home based daycare with up to twelve children, all of different ages. For the last twenty five years I have been an animal educator, trainer and the past fifteen years primarily focused on training dogs. My passion is working with children and animals. I have recently left my job of 15 years to pursue working part time babysitting/nanny and run my own part time dog training business. It's been quite a while but due to medical issues three of my four children we born with I had to be trained in adult and infant CPR as well as how to preform the Heimlich maneuver in order for my babies to be discharged from the hospital. Fortunetly for me I knew Read more how to do this because years ago one of my daycare children with Down Syndrome put too many goldfish crackers in her little mouth and was choking. I performed the Heimlich maneuver and out can the stuck cracker.
