My name is Nancy Garcia and I am 22 years old. I was originally working as a kindergarten teacher aide at a charter school in Oakland but was hoping to work more with younger children. I’ve always loved children so I thought why not have the career of my dreams and be a child development teacher. I can work and do what I love at the same time. I love being a toddler teacher because I am fascinated by children and find joy being around them. Everyday I come to work very enthusiastic about seeing the children.
