I come from a very large family, therefore I have had the pleasure of being around and watching over little ones for a long time now. I currently look after three toddlers on a very part-time basis, the little guy whom I watched full-time has entered day care and the others have only been on date nights. I've had many wonderful opportunities; running a women's clothing store in the LES, starting a women's clothing line, photo assistant (currently) and I also paint and write. At the end of the day, however, I am always drawn to children and always find my way back to being a care taker. Having the aforementioned opportunities, I am able to bring critical thinking and time management skills to care taking without losing the creativity, fun and humor in day to day tasks. I am an avid reader and love reading with children as well Read more as listening to music with them and having sing-a-longs and dance-a-longs. I am also fluent in Spanish.
