I have cared for children ever since I was a young teen. I've babysat and nannied when I was younger and in my adult life, I’ve worked at different types of jobs taking care of and teaching children. I have experience in new born up to 18 years old, ranging from one child to 20 at a time. I have a lot of experience not only taking care of children but also teaching. I have helped babies and toddlers reach and excel in their milestones, gotten 3-5 year olds ready for school, and helped school aged children by tutoring and helping them with homework and studying. I believe that children learn and grow in many aspects in their lives and I create a plan to help each individual child be the best that they can be so they will have an amazing life. I think it is very important for Read more children grow not just physically but mentally, emotionally, and socially. I have a lot of fun with the children and some of my favorite things to do with them are games and crafts. I also have a lot of experience working with children who have a variety of special needs including children with autism, speech delays, CP, g-tubes, tracheas, heart issues, and more. I am first aid and CPR certified. My passion in life is helping children in every way possible.
