Renee has been a childcare professional for over 10 years. She is also a mother to a 5 year-old- son who is the one that inspired her to write a children's book with him being the main character in different form. Throughout her years she has had the opportunity to imprint on many little hearts as they have done as well in return. As a childcare professional that grew up with many siblings one being a sister that was deaf she has always incorporated ASL into her daily lesson plans. Literacy and Language development are extremely important in the early childhood years and parents and teachers play a crucial role with helping them develop those skills. Reading is a great tool and extremely fundamental. As a result, Renee found it as one of her purposes to not only leave imprints on the little hearts she physically came in contact with but also many others as well.Renee believes that being able to share with others and to give back is one of the many things that make life fulfilling.
