Caregiving
01.2013 - 08.2022
In January of 2013, my long-term substitute contract ended, and my first son was born. During this time, I had three children, and was lucky enough to be able to stay home with them. During those years, I was able to use my background in education to volunteer in their classrooms and fill in at the preschool when needed. Once they all entered elementary school, I was offered a permanent position at the preschool they had attended.
