A little bit about me

I’m a mom of three with just about 10 years of experience in the childcare field and an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Education. I’ve worked with children of all ages and enjoy supporting their growth in a safe, structured, and nurturing environment.

I’m very involved in my children’s schools, volunteering and chaperoning when given the opportunity. I’m also a sports mom for dance, and soccer; including team mom for cheer, football, and track. I’m comfortable juggling busy schedules while keeping kids engaged and supported.

I have one child who is not currently in school, as they were not age-eligible at the time. I’m open to opportunities where I could bring my child along, as I believe it can create a positive, family-style environment and offer healthy social interaction, all while maintaining focused, attentive care for the children in my care.

Caring for children isn’t just a job, it’s who I am. I’m grateful and take pride in the children I support and nurture.
