I like to say that my childcare career started at age 2 when my mother ran a home daycare. We used to tell people that I was her best employee! Growing up in an environment surrounded by other children and watching my mother tend to them instilled a love and passion for working with children in me.I received my babysitter's license at age 12, and have been working with children privately and professionally for over 10 years.Now an Early Childhood Education student in my last semester, I plan on making my life-long career out of working with children.
