A little bit about me

I have been working with children since the age of 15. I first started off as an after school homework helper and became a Youth group leader during high school summers. I am now a fully certified preschool teacher. I love working with children and watching them grow.
I am super outgoing and very bubbly. My heart lies with the younger children but would not mind older children as that’s where I first started off.
