I am passionate about helping to care for children. I love thinking of creative ways to help them learn and grow and believe that the best time to learn is while playing. I graduated from Grand Valley State University with my degree in Special Education, with certifications in Cognitive Impairment and Early Childhood Education. I have been working with children, whether in a childcare setting or babysitting for 12 years. I currently work as an Early Childhood Specialist for Head Start for Kent County and am looking for a summer position. I can't wait to get to know you and your sweet little ones. :)
