I have years of experience working with children in a variety of settings to include running my own daycare, providing mental health supports as a BHP and Children's Case Manager, to my current position in education in mainstream schools and Special Ed programs. I am creative, love to support children in their interests and am fun and engaging. I have a background in medical healthcare as well. Because I'm employed in education, I have my fingerprints and a Criminal History Records Check on file with the Department of Education. I have a clean driving history and valid license as well as reliable transportation.
