I Grew up in a family with a home day care center. I became the substitute and helper with my mom since I was a teenager. After I graduated from high school I worked at a local daycare center privately owned but still assisted my mom when I wasn't at work. Although I don't have children of my own I love kids and have always loved taking care of them. I have 5 other siblings and because of this I have 17 nieces and nephews I love taking care of also throughout the years and I'm the favorite aunt. I am still my mother's licensed substitute I am CPR certified but I think it may be expired so I will have to go to a class renew it. I do understand the importance of knowing CPR because it can make the biggest difference in medical emergencies and the outcome. I Read more worked as a cash processor with Brinks Inc for 9yrs and I decided I wanted to work with children again. I also was a waitress for 4yrs and worked as a CNA with the elderly part time during my years with Brinks. It is something that requires great patience and although I loved taking care of our elders I didn't consider the emotional weight of hospice care. I do have 2 years of college education but didn't graduate although I still plan on continuing in the future. To conclude I understand that not everyone connects well with kids but I hope I can be a good fit to care for your little one(s). Also if I'm ever sick I do not go around kids but if they are it's fine. I understand children will get sick and dirty and fall down but I understand the importance of caring for them .
