I think I would be great for the job because I am a natural caregiver at heart. I have three kids of my own (29, 28, 22 yrs old). I would have more children if i could but I'm not able to have anymore. I have considered adopting although, I am currently a single parent. I have three grandchildren (10, 5, 3 yrs old) that I love to care for and spoil. I feel taking care of children is something that motivates me and gives me a purpose & drive in life. God has blessed me with a passion for it, and I feel it would be a waste not to share it. I have also been a step-parent, and know what it takes to co-parent, and do what is best for the child rather than self/ or a relationship. It is hard work to deal with all types of Read more kids big and small but, I have a lot of love to give and I like to learn and grow just as much as they do. Patience and understanding of each child's needs as individuals is key in helping them grow into a great human. Communication is key when you teach a child with praise, reprimanding, or learning. People my whole life have told me that they admire how big my heart is and that I care too much. However people need people and it gives me true joy to care for others. i have a passion for children, and would love help you care for yours. I have taken CPR in the past but need to be updated, I have taken parenting classes on the "love & logic series" I have prior nanny/ babysitting experience as well as raising my own children and helping to raise my grandchildren.
