  About Me
 
I am a 40 yr old wife and mother of two. I have worked with children for 15 years and elderly for 3 years.
I have some college credit in pre-nursing, and have had CPR and First Aid training. I was raised in Alaska by a retired military dad and catholic school teacher mom. My education was at a private catholic school in Fairbanks, Ak and then public high school. I spent most of my time at the ice rinks around town before and after school training in figure skating throughout my young life. I am the last child out of 6 in my family.
As an adult, I moved my love of figure skating to coaching. Instructing students young and old in a sport that I have a passion for. I also started college with a pre nursing emphasis. I later supplemented my income as a home health care aide, keeping with my interest in medicine and helping people in other ways.
I moved to Washington with my military husband and son(17) 6 years ago, while pregnant with my daughter, who is now 5 years old. I was privileged to be able to stay at home with my daughter, caring and watching her grow for 4 years.
I have worked this past year in the corporate customer service world, and now would love to continue to help my community in ways that I am best at: Caring and helping others.

  Work Experience & Education Background
 
10 years experience, 3 references
I have two children of my own that I have raised. One is almost out of high school and the other is now in pre-school. With this wide difference is age, I have the hindsight that most parents would like. In particular, I was able to stay at home with my youngest child, teaching and early educating her in our home.
As a figure skating coach, a good majority of my student were preschool to high school age children. They helped me hone my verbal and nonverbal communication skills at an age appropriate level, as well as, how to relate to children with all different personalities. For years I had a dozen private students that I saw 2-3 hours a day for 1-10 years. This helped my build relationships with my students and really get to know where I could assist parents shaping their child.
