I have been working with children since I was 14 years old. I have been working in a childcare setting for almost 4 years now. I started out in an after school program for children in Kindergarten-8th grade. After that, I moved into the toddler room and began working with children ages 12 months-24 months of age. I loved that age group, but I was ready to be with older children in order to teach them about letters and numbers. I got asked by my director to move into a VPK teacher assistant job, and I said yes. Ever since then, I have loved it so much!
