My passion is watching the world through a baby's or toddler's eyes. Things that we take for granted are all so new and exciting for them. Everything is a learning experience. I went to Maria College for Early Childhood Education, and to SUNY, at which I got a bachelor's in Soc./Psych in 2008 with a cum laude degree. I raised two sons alone, and they are now fine young men fulfilling their own life goals. I am so proud of them! My friends will tell you that I have an innate ability to see a child's needs and fix it before it becomes an issue. I swear, I can put a fussy infant to sleep in under two minutes. My friends playfully call me "the baby whisperer". I am a "kid magnet", and I love it. I am presently a certified foster care parent, but have no babies at this time
