I always baby sat my cousins as a kid . When I got into high-school I started the capstone program. This allowed us to work in an onsite day care for the teacher's children during our Junior year. Our senior year we had to work 2 jobs. One was volunteer and the other was paid. I chose to work for Deepwood for 2 years and Brentmoor elementary, as a after-school We-care teacher. Shortly after high-school I got pregnant with my daughter (9) . I worked a in a few more local day cares (Love, learn, and laughter, little scholars, Kinnions) . I then started a new career in automotive. I still watch my 9 nieces and nephews weekly.
