I have first became a nanny at the age of 20 and kept one child for 9 years. I am a foster parent as well and have two busy siblings currently. I love what i do and currently continuing my career with children and families. Originally my goal was to become a teacher and now i am in social work field planning to open a business in the future to continue to re unite foster children with their biological parent I feel its important that a child be loved and cared for with their own family as well as an caregiver, it helps with their development and helps them achieve their highest potential as an individual. I have extensive experience in this field and will continue to learn and grow as I continue this journey with children and families
