I am a fun loving an energetic person who's three greatest passions are MUSIC, CHILDREN, AND ANIMALS! I have been working in the childcare industry for over 10 years. I have worked in Montessori, private and public school settings. Currently I am employed with CMS as an EC Assistant working with children with special needs. I am certified with my childcare credentials I &II for the state of NC and I have course credits in both child and adolescent development and psychology. Providing child care is the perfect job for me because it is something that I enjoy and it does NOT feel like labor. My love for children and my passion to see them grow and develop socially, emotionally, and intellectually is why I'd be the perfect childcare provider , baby sitter, or nanny!
