I went to school for Early Childhood Edication but have not graduated yet. I only have 4 classes left to get my Associates degree however I had to stop school due to financial problems and a sick mother. Taking care of my mother has given me a lot of qualifications to also take care of children. I used to work at a daycare as well for about a year but had to stop. I am more than qualified to care for children and I love working with children also. I enjoy what I do and not only would I be able to care for children but I could also do activities with them that will help them educationally. I do want to let you know that I am a smoker however I NEVER smoke around children. I refrain from doing so while I'm with other people's children so that will Read more not be a problem. I hope you feel comfortable letting me work with your children. Thank you very much for your time.
