Hey there to whomever this may concern, my name is Valerie Diaz. I am originally from New York but I moved to Virginia with my family when I was just 13 years old. It was a drastic change to over come at the time but I made it through lol. I love to sing, draw, and most importantly give. I live for making other people’s busy day to day lives just a little bit more brighter. I love giving advise, wisdom, knowledge, gifts, treats for doggies, you name it. I just turned 23, I still live with my mom because she’s all I got left here in Virginia. Most of our family (if not all) is in Puerto Rico. She’s a police officer herself and I worry about her as well. With that type of career you’ll never know what to expect. My experience with kids is wonderful as well. Read more Ive worked at a daycare in a church for about 8 months before I left to the Army. I was first assigned to watch 10 toddlers with the help of another coworker. But later got switched to watching 14 waddlers because that department was getting short handed as the number of kids grew. I had no preference in which age group I loved most. From infants to toddlers I love them all. They taught me a lot about mother hood and just life itself. I can’t wait to have my own but I can definitely wait due to financial reasons.
