I have cared for children in many different ways since I was 11. I worked for a respite care agency in Wichita, KS with children with special needs. I taught special education for 4 years and kindergarten for 2 years. I served as an outreach storyteller with the Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library for 5 years with 3-5-year-olds in daycares and preschools. I worked at Security Benefit Academy as a toddler teacher with 1 and 2-year-olds. I have several nieces and nephews that I love and help to take care of from time to time.

    I worked with Sharon for 6 years when we were teachers at the same elementary school. She taught special needs children with moderate disabilities for 4 years and kindergarten for 2 from 2000-2006. Since I taught children with mild disabilities we often consulted with each other and co-taught a few students. I found her to be a person of high morals who took her job very seriously. She was also good with parents of children with moderate disabilities who need emotional support in raising children who are mentally challenged, She continues to be a close friend even though I am now retired. I feel she would be an excellent child care provider for children of all abilities and someone you could feel comfortable having care for your children in your home.
