My parents have always called me "the child whisperer" because of my passion for children. I have a bit of a natural talent for children. I actually kind of have a specialty for behaviorally challenged children. Mainly because I was one. I connect with these children and they tend to respond very well. Growing up with A.D.D. was definitely a challenge but it has given me a lot of insight to work with children. I have been around children my entire life having a large family. I have worked with children professionally for 3 years, working both for the school district and for a privately owned Christian based daycare/learning center. I have experience with all ages and also love to teach them new things and values. It is never too early to start learning! :-)
