I believe in hard work and will never take money I have not earned. I have many years of childcare experience both in the US and internationally, so I understand the difficulties that come with the job. I am very outgoing and am an extremely patient person. I favorite thing to do with kids is to create new games and new ways to learn. I understand that no child is the same, so the way of teaching, living or working with them should not be the same. I am imaginative, creative and confident. I am not shy about discipline if a child misbehaves but I believe love and respect are the keys to a strong relationship.
