I am a mother of 3 wonderful boys (5, 8 & 11 years old). I had the privilege to be home with them until they were 3 years old before sending them to daycare. This allowed me to care for their educational needs whilst developing a loving and nurturing relationship with all three. This was possible due to my line of work: I was the director of a classical ballet school for 17 years, which allowed for a flexible schedule. I have always been passionate about children’s care and education, and my role as a teacher and motivational figure for almost 20 years was a rich and enlightening experience. Unfortunately, the pandemic forced me to close the school. Nonetheless, I pursued my dream of caring for children by enrolling in the French Public School system. I have been teaching kindergarten and 1st grade for 4 years now - yearly contracts. As I have not secured a position this year, I am searching for alternative ways to spread the love and care for little ones.
