“It’s my pleasure as your Infant One classroom teacher to introduce myself and to thank you for allowing us to be part of your child’s growth, development and memories.  My 47+ years of experience with children has been wonderful and I feel blessed.  I have been an infant caregiver for most of my 29 years at Open Arms and I love what I do!”
