Torece Codrington

Assistant Teacher.

My name is Ms.Torece and I’m a 25-year-old who loves babies and food! I’ve been working with children of all ages since the age of 14 and I wouldn’t change it for the world. My best experience has come from working with children and knowing that I always leave a piece of me with them. My main purpose and goal are to hopefully open my own center mainly catering to babies and toddlers. Working with children is the highlight of my life. 🙂
