I'm a mother of four now adult teens. I have always loved children. In addition to raising my own children I have also worked and taken care of children the last 10 years. Having a daughter myself with special needs, has given me increased insight, experience and understanding and also being able to share my own experience so someone else can benefit from it. In addition to taking care f children I'm also an accomplished artist of Fine Art. I teach Art and French to children and teens. I love to see the benefit it brings to children when they learn to express their creativity and also how it increases their awareness and confidence and stimulate their brain in a very natural way to reach all their potential. Specially special need children that often sometimes have a more superior intellectual capacity than average. I always believe that you are the best in what you love the most, and that goes for children an adults.
