I have worked with children for quite some time now. They always bring me joy, and I try my best to be kind and caring, and teach them to be kind to others as well. Since my brother is on the Autism Spectrum, and I struggle with my own issues like ADHD and Dysgraphia, I have a personal connection with special needs children, and really enjoy working with them. For 4 years I worked in my church's nursery and religious education classes with more than 4 kids at a time. So I know how to handle different personalities and temperaments -- kind of like the Von Trapp family in "The Sound of Music!" Lastly, I am willing to help out with any animals that need to be taken care of because I have my own pets - a cat and a dog.
