FAVORITE QUOTES

“Keep your eyes lifted high upon the sun and you’ll see the best light in everyone.”

— Tess Guinery

I have always loved and enjoyed working with kids. It is a huge passion of mine. Throughout my life, there has been a common theme and children have always been in every stage. I am the oldest of me and my sister and I always enjoyed being her “mommy” growing up, she was my mini me. Now that I have my own little girl and family, it feels like a dream come true. I’ve always wanted to be a mom for as long as I can remember. 

My mom taught me how to swim before I was a year old, she was a lifeguard, and that was one of the best things she did for me. I remember every single summer as a kid, I was in the water as much as possible, whether that was in the pool, lake, or beach trips. My mom would always call me her little fish because I never wanted to get out of the water. 

So when the opportunity came along to be a swim coach and “merge” by two worlds so to speak, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. I am so excited and this job doesn’t feel like a job at all, it feels like it was just meant to be for me. 

I am truly blessed and I pray that I can be a light to the children that cross my path. I cannot wait to work with your pride and joys! ❤️
