I've been working here at Apple Tree since May of last year. I am currently attending NCC to take classes to apply to their nursing program. I am interested in working in pediatrics so I am taking this opportunity to work with children. I am also currently taking an early childhood education course. I enjoy teaching the children at Apple Tree very much!
