I have been an educator for 10+ years. I started as a teacher's assistant when I graduated from high school. Throughout my career, I have worked with all ages and stages of children. My favorite part of teaching is getting to see the children develop and being able to create a bond with all of the families. There is never a dull moment when working with children because they are all unique.
