Tell us about yourself
I used to work hourly jobs followed by classroom jobs/ nanny jobs... they were all ok ..paid the bills..some better than others.. and I had my share of some wonderful people to a lot of politics and disappointment like most people find I would think... Being my own boss is probably what keeps me happy and going.

The hardest thing can be scheduling and ensuring policies are in line to make everything run smoothly.

- Getting your business the way you want takes time and work. Be patient.
- Be willing to work long hours until it starts running more.
- Have fun- (if it's your passion..).
