HI ! My name is Octavia Puryear. I am 32 years old and have 5 years of professional childcare experience , along with 17 years of personal childcare experience. I love working with children because they remind us of how us adults need to be sometimes . I started in childcare first personally babysitting relatives starting from the age of 15 . (ages newborn to 8 years.) I worked as a preschool teacher in Manhattan for 5 years (ages 3 months to 5 years) . I taught at Preschool of America for 4 years and The Goddard school for 1 year, where I was also asked to babysit some of my students due to my hard work and compassion I showed as a teacher . I am also a mother to a wonderful 7 year old daughter ! What sets me apart from others is that working with children really Read more takes a village and is more than a career choice. I feel like I provide more than just a service. Lets just say as proof some of my students who I've helped teach and babysit from ages 2 still remember me and ask for me and they are in elementary school now.
