I have been able to work with all ages of children for the past four years, including in my local elementary school and as a daycare teacher. I am very passionate about providing children with a safe and engaging environment where ever they may be at. I also am earning a degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education at Iowa State University to help further my education in teaching and encouraging the next generation!
