  About Me
 
I come from a very close, loving family. I am very outgoing and flexible and easy to please. I pride myself in my ability to accept any and all types of people and to find things in common with the seemingly opposite type of person than me. I am passionate about the things I love such as painting and my spirituality. The great passion of my life though is working with children. I believe that I embody the patience, love, and understanding that is crucial in helping a child. I strongly believe in positive reinforcement. Children will inevitably misbehave and need discipline, and in that situation I believe in consistency and follow through. Rewards and lose of priveleges is how I have handled behavior problems in my past experiences with children.
