Candy (her real first name) is a singer/songwriter, mom, and pediatric nurse. She has a degree in Environmental Studies. During her education for that degree, she also studied elementary education. Candy's internship was in environmental education, where she got to take kids on swamp walks, catch bugs, pet deer and skunks, handle snakes, and plan educational crafts and activities.
Candy spent years performing and writing. During this time, she also taught songwriting in the public school system. This sparked her interest in writing kids' songs. When she had her first child, she began nursing school and is now a pediatric nurse! Candy has a special place in her heart for kids with special needs as she works with them every day, and has a son with Cystic Fibrosis and Sensory Processing Disorder.
Candy is having a lot of fun raising her kids, working as a nurse, and making kids' albums and music videos.
