I don't have any certifications yet but I have a 15 month old niece, infant twins ( a niece and a nephew) and a 3 year old Goddaughter. On top of that I work in the nursery and in the kids church at my church. I always help out with V.B.S. every year and I absolutely love working with children. I am willing to discipline the child if necessary and only when necessary. I naturally discipline a child if I am allowed to and only discipline if the punishment fits the crime. My goal in life is to either become a child psychologist or to become a doula. Both of which I have been told I would be great at. Also my sister (mother to my Goddaughter) has told me that she sometimes gets jealous at how I can get her child to behave and comfort her. I cook, clean, Read more and listen to the parents. I understand that parents know and understand their children better than anyone else. I don't wish to overstep ever.
