A little bit about me

Hello! I am new to Lake Charles from Dallas, Texas! My husband was promoted at his job and we relocated to Lake Charles over the summer. I have enjoyed getting to know the area and of course the rich culture that comes with living in Louisiana. I have worked in Childcare for 7 years and have enjoyed every day of it. I have learned so much over the years that child care comes very naturally to me. I like to get to know my families and get a good understanding of what's most important to them for their child's individual care needs. Transparency and communication is of the utmost importance to me. And of course having fun and making sure the children are clean, healthy and happy. I take pride in my work and am greatful for the opportunity to help mold little minds. I am currently in the process of enrolling in school and hope to one day become a pediatric nurse.
