I am a people person, a kid person. I enjoy working with children and their families. I worked for a Head Start program in Indiantown Fla, 16 years ago. This is where my career began. I was a floater, teacher assistant, then became a teacher. Thanks to Head Start, I was able to go to school, and earned my National CDA.
After two years, I took a job at a YMCA. I took the position of a Lead Teacher, and was then promoted to Program Director. I worked for 12 years. I relocated to NJ.
My goal is to find a position, as receptionist, family service worker.
