  About Me
 
I am a mother of 3 warm, loving children, 2 of whom are at college and the third lives with me.
I have always been loved and been interested in children and education and helping them to really be all they can be. I have been working in special education which has been a really enjoyable challange but I prefer working with a family, becoming part of the family and creating a loving secure environment working hand in hand with the parents needs. I believe in being loving, caring and helping young children to be all that they can be. To stimulate them with new experiences through play and discovery of the world around them. To help every child develop his unique destiny and talents and creating an inner desire to learn more and be curious about the world around him.

I believe that children need boundaries and time out or a firm tone of voice can be used successfully.
