A little bit about me

I am a married parent of an amazing 24 and 14 year old. I have watched children since i was a teenager. I love them and they love me. I currently work in a childcare facility but want to branch off on my own because i went and received my CDAs, Child Development Associates, and feel I would do great with my own group of children. I have a daughter with type 1 diabetes so I am familiar with what to do in that situation. I can be available anytime. Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns you might have.
