A little bit about me

Imagine Mary Poppins but she enjoys Dungeons and Dragons in her free time. In studying some early childhood development in college, I believe in the importance of play and imagination but recognize these can be perfect areas to learn about life with such fantastical bumpers. Most of my adult childcare experience has come from volunteering with a daycare for children who had experienced severe trauma in Sarasota during college or helping/leading the childcare effort for the Migrant Worker Coalition as they held their meetings pre-Covid. Though I spent years at each, it has clearly been some time and, to be clear, I want to renew my first aid and cpr certifications prior to actually taking any jobs. So silly voices abound, prepared for a dramatic reading of any bedtime story.
