I am a child care provider and teacher for infants and toddlers. Being a mother at the tender age of 13, molded me to be a nurturing person; as I've been a caretaker now for many years. I have been in the child care industry for 20+ years, as well as working in other environments with children such as the Waterloo Community Schools, and Boys and Girls Club. I do what I do because becoming a mother at such a young age has taught me how to be an inspiring, whole hearted caretaker for others. I want to leave every child I come in contact with to remember at least one positive thing that I may have done or said to help them achieve their goals along the way. I know that I am placed in this position as God put me here to help others along this life's journey. I want my Great-Grandchildren and others that I've inspired along the way to have happy memories of me (their GG), so when they hear my name, they smile and know that in their heart I've had a positive impact on their life.
