Hello! I am a caregiver of 6 years now, I began babysitting on an army base when I was 12 and then worked under my mom for two years when she did home daycare for six month olds through pre-school aged children. (It was basically an at home CDC following Army CDC guidelines.) I come from a big family, with many grandchildren so childcare came naturally to me and I learned to love it! In 2015 I began training so I could go into special needs, and have experience working with children of all ages who are on the spectrum. I also have CPR, First Aid, and serv safe certifications.
