Experience I have over 30 years of personal and professional child care education and experience, including experience working with multiples (twins/triplets) and cross-categorical special needs. I have worked in the field of early child care and education, with children 6 weeks-kindergarten, as an assistant teacher, teacher and director while also working for two reputable nanny agencies. I also worked as a paraprofessional and substitute teacher with cross-categorical special needs students, from 5 years to 21 years of age for Special School district of Saint Louis County. From there, I ran my own in-home child care and development program. In January 2011, I returned to school and became a full-time personal nanny. In December 2014 we returned to a child care center setting, working with Pre-kindergarten students. I am a homeschooling mom to my youngest son, who is now 11. He is amazing with children of all ages, and has been Read more happily welcomed on all of my nanny and daycare positions. I also have a son who is 33, and five awesome grandchildren. Some of my hobbies include writing poetry and children's stories, exploring nature, staying active, researching genealogy and homesteading. Most importantly, I enjoy spending time with my family and working on our home in the country. Education I have junior level standing toward a Bachelor of Science degree in Cross Categorical K-12 Special Education with Elementary Certification through Fontbonne University. I am working on a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Science with a Minor in Psychology. My Minor in Psychology is now complete. Screenings/References I am a non-smoker, with a current statewide criminal background check and child abuse and neglect screening through The (FCSR) Family Care Safety Registry as well as Heart Saver First Aid with CPR and AED. During the interview you can view my professional portfolio and receive my reference sheet.
