I have engaged, guided, and supported youth for several decades. I enjoy children of all age groups, because I fell that each child is unique in his or her own way. Children are our future and they are important to me. I feel that there aren’t any bad children; only children who need extra attention, nurturing and kindness from a safe & positive adult.
