My experience with children covers more than 1/2 of my life. Beginning in my teens, I have been engaged in the care of children from infancy to 12 years of age. I'm a former Youth Services Librarian. I began my career in Youth Services at the Peru Public library at the age of 16. After graduating from ISU, I became the Youth Services Librarian in Lincoln, IL. I was able to stay at home with my two daughters. During this time, we had many days of nurturing, love, laughter, learning, and silliness. In more recent years, I have been employed at local schools as an educational aide and library/learning center professional. For 3 years, I was employed through a government agency, and involved in after school programs. I was Lead Teacher for a Pre-K program for low income children. This was a very rewarding job. I truly believe in creating Read more a bond with the child(ren) who is/are placed in my care. My years of experience have afforded me many opportunities to create environments for children which are safe, stimulating, and allow for imaginations to take flight. I come complete with an activity bag filled with all manner of fun, my own transportation, a big heart, infectious smile, and the patience of an arm chair cat! I can even sneak in educational activities through play which inspire young minds (even those as young as newborns). I have certification in infant, toddler, child and adult CPR. Life guard training and a general education teaching certificate for Kindergarten through 8th grade. I received my Library and Information Science degree from ISU. I would enjoy meeting with you and yours!
