I enjoy working with children. I have worked with children consistently for 20+ years and I'm enthusiastic about providing children with a range of experiences and interactions. Spending time with young people keeps me feeling alive and happy. I am a busy, active person with a wide range of interests, and I believe children learn best and are happiest, when engaged in interesting activities. I believe play is beneficial for children. I am interested in learning about each child as a person, watching their emerging and developing personality. It fascinates me endlessly to be a witness to their acquisition of language and each skill they master. I feel vested in helping each child become their very best self, grow with a positive self image, engage their world and learn to advocate for their needs. I am a trained teacher with a k-8 teaching certificate, I have raised younger siblings and Read more my own children, I have worked as a baby sitter for numerous years, as well as preschool and toddler aged children. I am comfortable with infants (one on one) and practice baby-wearing and responding to children's needs. I am a bit of a health nut, and don't care to give children unhealthy foods or things that are harmful to them. I believe in educating children about making healthy eating choices. In the past I have been certified for infant/child/adult CPR and first aid, I took my last class in the fall. I passed life guard training several years ago. I rarely have had to deal with injuries since I am very vigilant on behalf of child safety.
