I began babysitting at the age of 12 and realized very early on that working with children is what I wanted to do as I got older. I worked as a recreation leader for about four years, working with children aged 4-16. I was a preschool teachers assistant through the city where I also helped with public events. I’ve nannied and babysat for multiple children, one who I eventually was asked to be his godmother. I have tutored two children in both math and English. I privately helped and trained three young girls in softball. I interned at a preschool which ultimately led me to my current goal; owning my own preschool. I’ve taken a few child development classes at the Napa Valley College. I have seven nieces and nephews and I’ve babysat the majority of them aged 1 month old - 13 years old. I am currently at a Read more desk job, trying to save money to achieve my goal, while doing something I love.
