A little bit about me
My name is Derek and I have worked at an in-home childcare center part-time & on call substitute since 2017. Weekly I allow our 10 kids a simple weekly art project with fun but educational component (hand-eye, mixing colors, natural element, etc). Additionally you can find me volunteering weekly at the Santa Barbara Sea Center educating our young inquisitive mind about our local marine environment. I am a dog lover and have two dogs myself.
Prefer to stay in Santa Barbara area. Can do Ventura for occasionally scheduled visits. Feel free to contact me with any question or concern and I will get back to you ASAP!
