Understanding the way children think and perceive things
has helped me to provide the best childcare and education for the
children I have been involved with and responsible for through the
years. My journey with young children began at the tender age of
nine when circumstances placed me in the caregiver role for my
three young siblings while my mother worked to provide for us.
Childcare and Early Childhood Education became my trademark
in my community because I believed that each child deserved to be
loved and respected as an individual and protected by the adults
around them.
I have worked in excess of thirty years in Early Childhood
Education and will always be an advocate for children. I am a devoted
mother and grandmother
