A little bit about me

Hi loves!
I have been in childcare for 10+ years. I have an 8 year old daughter. My former job at preschools puts me with all age groups and gives me multi-tasking skills galore. I love animals of all kinds, I also have been certified as a birth doula/postpartum doula. I am a "free range" type person, I love letting kids get messy and express themselves. Helping kids find their footing as people while teaching them how to be firm in their boundaries and polite is the top goal. Respect and polite are two things that are two way streets with kids. They give what they recieve. Tantrums are just a kid's way of expressing their emotions when they don't have the words yet and it's amazing to watch the progress when they start to realize how to express themselves with words. Being outside is the most healing and healthy thing for a child. I like to tell people kids are like plants, they need dirt, sunshine and water to thrive.
