I have a degree in Social Work, and have worked in mental health field for over 12 years. I am fairly new to the area and looking for a slightly different change of pace. I worked in the special ed. department of the public school system four years. I believe I have a great deal of knowledge of what makes makes up a child's behavior, how to build them up, encourage and have fun. I have current CPR/first aid certification, I am a decent cook, and very organized. Personally, I enjoy gardening (I try my best), theater, museums, baking, video games, card games, bowling, arts and crafts (diy) and movies. Regarding lifestyle , I am a non smoker, dog owner, with no past or current drug abuse. I try to eat clean, for me that means getting in as many fruits and veggies as I can. No soda, fruit punch, Read more etc., 95% of the time I have water only. I have been an aunt since I was 5 years old. I have 11 nieces and nephews and have learned to appreciate the differences in their personalities. I have a very culturally diverse family with several languages and religions. That has made me a very well rounded person that's constantly learning . Thank you in advance for viewing my profile for consideration and I hope to hear from you soon. Best Regards, Erika
