From humble beginnings and a wonderful family, Genalyn has learned a lot about life.  She appreciates family, friends and the opportunity to work.  She believes that with hard work and discipline anything can be accomplished.  For the past seven years Genalyn has been taking care of young children to help earn money for her own family back in the Philippines.  Genalyn says she feels so blessed to have children in her life; she loves their energy and how much “she” learns from them. Aside from childcare, Genalyn plays, reads, helps with homework and is more than happy to help with the household chores. Genalyn is looking for a brighter future for her family and hopes that coming to Canada will help her achieve her goal.
