I've always loved children and taking care of others generally. Also, i have experience as a Direct Support Professional working with people with disabilities. I've been working as a teacher for a couple of years as well. I'm such a nurturing and affectionate person and I just love children. I do prefer working with infants and toddlers because I admire the strides they make when they accomplish their important steps in their lives at an early age. I'm also Dominican and was born and raised for 17 years in the Caribbean. I believe in the start of a child's education at a very young age. Children are so amazing and just viewing the world in their eyes is something I'm just so passionate about. I cant wait to take care, nurture and educate your young ones. I also have my Associates degree and is currently a teacher at the Primrose Read more School of Plainfield. I hope to meet your family soon!
