Hi, I am currently an infant teacher and a director of a daycare. I am cpr certified MAT trained and have a lot of experience with children with disabilities and special help needs under the age of one. The babies in my current class are 6 weeks to 12 months old. The youngest child I cared for as a nanny was 2 weeks old. I have been working with kids for almost 10 years. I was previously a BT for autistic kids and have a bachelors degree in child psychology and art therapy. I am getting my masters in special education and social work. I love animals and have no problem being around them.
