A little bit about me

Hi my name is Cara! I live in Cedar Rapids, but will be going to PCI academy in Iowa City. This summer I spent most of my time working at a daycare. I was in the infant room with 8 babies at a time, and from that I learned a lot. I learned how to multiple task while caring for multiple kids at time with all different needs, what type of actives to do with different age children, how to know what the children want without them saying, and so much more. I also learned how to make sure to keep up with cleaning, and create and stick to a schedule!
