I am a loving, compassionate, responsible, energetic Professional Child Caregiver with years of experience caring for preemies through Kindergarteners. For the past year I have been loving on a sweet 1 year old; the 3 years before I made memories with a hilarious 4-year-old, after spending 2+years with adventurous boy/girl twins. Prior, I was engaged in a 3-year journey with preemie twins and older sibling. I was lead care giver in an infant classroom at a licensed day care and lived 6 years at a home for at-risk children in Costa Rica serving as Preschool Founder/Teacher. Hanging out with little ones is my heart’s passion; what fills my love tank. I enjoy being a part of enriching the lives of children by loving them into reaching for their greatest potential in their own unique learning style. I am organized, detailed and proactive with a keen sense of what else can Read more be done to make the family’s time together the best possible. My daily goal is to return my babes and home in the best condition possible so the family may enjoy focused quality time together.
