Mary-jane I., Child Care in Lake Hiawatha, NJ 07034 with 2 years of paid experience

Caring for my younger siblings and students in my community influenced my decision to become a caregiver. Participating in activities such as summer enrichment classes and daycare learning centers fueled my passion even more, and those experiences taught me that I am passionate about helping people and improving the daily lives of those in need of care. Supporting my students taught me patience, compassion, and problem-solving skills. I learned how to deal with problems quickly and effectively in order to keep them healthy and safe.
