A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Siran. I truly love and enjoy working with children. It has always been a passion of mine since I was a kid. I am very nurturing, very patient, and very loving. I am also a mother of two, so I know how difficult it is to trust someone whole heartedly with your children. I have over 20 years of experience in child care. I also have experience with kids who have special needs. I am reliable, honest, hard-working, and very trustworthy. As a mother, trust is very important to me so believe me when I say every child in my care I have always taken care of as if they were my own and I will do the same with your child.
