Summary
From the age of 6 months old, to 14 years of age, working with various ages of children created skills that reflect that of a mother like figure in jobs. While maintaining a professional and authoritative position in children's eyes, previous jobs have still created unbreakable bonds between me and these children. Not only have relationships with children been made, but with their parents and guardians as well. Open lines of communication, unbroken trust, and full support from parents and guardians are all skills that have been picked up over the years of working in childcare.
