I am a returned Peace Corps volunteer where I served in Guyana, South America.  I have also worked in South Africa with children orphaned by HIV/AIDS at the Agape Child Care Center.  My international child care experience is only half of my expereience as I have also worked with many different groups, organzizations and families locally.  I have been babysitting my neighbors 2 children since they were born, I worked in a childrens homeless shelter and in the Peace Corps I was the director of the literacy program at the Windsor Forest Primary school.  I love working with children and am a lot of fun to have around.  The Peace Corps has taught many things but one of the most helpful things is resourcefulness.  I was given very little resources to accomplish very big projects.  This directly affects how I can care for children.  Aside from caring for them physically, Read more feeding, bathing, etc., I also can make fun out of any and all situations with very few  resources. I am currently a full time high schol teacher.  I am truly someone who can be trusted with your  children and I look forward to working with you.
