Ever since I was a child, working with children has been my dream job. I've went from wanting to become a teacher to wanting to be a pediatrician. It's always been a dream of mine. When I was in high school, my mother became a teacher. She was assigned home instruction students which would required her going to their houses to teach them. I would always tag along because I loved teaching kids. In high school, I also babysat kids from my family and family friends. When I graduated high school, I knew I wanted to continue in the field. I am currently enrolled in an accredited online university earning a bachelors degree in elementary education. The fact that I'm in online school makes my schedule extremely flexible. I'm willing to babysit, tutor, be a nanny, and pet sitter. I can also be on call if needed.

Spoke with her over the phone. Seemed very polite and nice. Scheduled to meet at our home. Deborah agreed to the date and time. Never showed up. Did not even bother to reply back to the text message that I sent 15 mins. after our scheduled time to meet. If this is the commitment and professionalism before the start of the job, I would not be comfortable trusting her with my child.
