A little bit about me
I am a kind, nurturing, fun, and energetic person. I have worked in schools as a pre-school aide and one on one aide. While working at schools, families connected with me for their childcare needs. I have taken care of children from 6 months -16 years. The past 5+ years I held a salary management position at 2 different Six Flags parks. With working there I learned to be organized, good time management, and conflict resolution. Also I can keep up with the most energetic children. I love doing fun educational activities with various ages, and I always try to research new activities to try.
