doing childcare since November of 1989 and I understand the difficulties in finding good, quality care for

your child. I feel I have the love, knowledge, patience, and experience in order to provide a warm,

simulating and loving environment in which your child can learn and glow. My love and knowledge

about children started from the time I was a small girl. I took care of a family at the age of 11 years old.

The father and mother had to work, leaving there small children in my care, because they could afford

childcare. I also had other babysitting jobs, mostly infants. I looked after my nephews and my mother

friend’s children as I was growing up. Of course now my own children are older and grown. In 1989, by

me loving children as much as I do, including my own, I finally found my gift and purpose in life. They

have given me the reason to start up my own home day care. My purpose is to give all children

individual attention, education and a safe environment, help them reach their development sages as

well. I am a credentialed preschool teacher-seven years- and worked has a head teacher in Kedren Head

Start program of the Los Angeles Unified School District. My mother was a pioneer for Kedren Head

Start when head start became an important tool in a preschool setting. Also I have recieved a certificate

in early childhood education and administration; having done so I have accomplished 48 units in total

though Cerritos College and continuously attend workshops to further my education. I belong to the

follow organizations: Compton Association Organization for Childcare Providers; Red Leaf Press

Organization; NAEYC Organization; Department of Children And Family Services’ have been trained by

the Red Cross in infant child and adult CPR and First Aid. I’m proud to be part of the growing field of

early childhood education My full dedication and love is given to all children in my care with a guarantee

of trust and satisfaction from the parents and also hope to bring a peace of mind and support to all the

parents and families by providing a safe, warm and loving environment. This is truly the place you want

your child to be! I would love to meet you and your child
