I am an easy going and patient person who is hard working and takes her job seriously. Children are a bright light and can always find a way to make people smile no matter what is going on. I am very loving, patient, and easy going with children as long as they know the correct boundaries. I am laid back but also stern. I allow them to make choices and if I feel they aren't making the right choices then there will be consequences. I always tell them what I expect of them before we doing anything.
