  About Me
 
I believe children are powerful and competent and have the right to be respected. I think it is important to believe in a child’s ideas, experiences and skills. In order for children to learn they must first feel comfortable and safe. My goal is to respect children and make them feel honored and to create a beautiful environment which helps them acquire a solid identity, self-esteem and creative problem solving abilities, which in turns help children gain the confidence to face new experiences. I am a very patient, happy open minded person. I love reading and learning. At the moment I am reading Theories of Childhood, Designs for Living and Learning Transforming Early Childhood Environments and The Play's the Thing. I feel children need us. They deserve to be happy. I am a student at Santa Monica College and I am finishing up my Associates Degree. All of my classes are online except for one on Tuesday evening.
