Why do I call myself the Childcare Queen, you ask? Let me tell you ALL about it. I have been caring for children for most of my life and for ALL of my adult life.
I started as most young girls do, babysitting for neighbor kids and children at my church.
Before I entered college, I spent a summer working as a live-in nanny in Connecticut. What an interesting experience! But that's for a whole other posting...HINT: Ever read The Nanny Diaries? ;)
After I survived that summer, I realized that I truly had a gift for caring for children and decided that when I entered college, I would study Child Development with a goal to teach or counsel children. Along this long and winding road, I have been a live-in and live-out nanny for a combined 7 years for 4 different families. I have worked in daycare centers, taught pre-school, have run my own in-home daycare and have served on the board of a non-profit daycare center. In addition to all of this, I have 4 children who have all either been in some sort of childcare or currently are. I have seen childcare from EVERY possible view. It is for all of these reasons that I have dubbed myself, THE Childcare Queen!
I am excited to launch this blog because I can't wait to share my experiences with you and teach you what I have learned over the years. I truly believe parents all over can benefit from what I know and what I have experienced.
I look forward to sharing it all with you.
