I have 2 grown children which one has given me 5 grandchildren and I also have another child that isn't grown yet that is the age of 6. My second grown child is away at the University of Tennessee getting his doctrine degree in clinical psychology. My husband and I are quiet people who keep to ourselves and very family oriented. I am currently working at a child care center that may not be open for much longer due to health issues with the owner. So I am forced to now look for employment once again. I have taught children preschool as well as worked in toddler and infant rooms with overseeing the daily operations as the assist director position I was in. I'm familiar with all state regulations for childcare so can assure any parent piece of mind.
