A little bit about me

Hello, I am Rhiannon, I have been working closely with children ages 24–36 months as a teacher’s aide, supporting their early development during a crucial stage of growth. In this role, I assist with daily routines, age‑appropriate activities, and social–emotional development, while maintaining a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. Through hands‑on experience, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, communication, and understanding individual needs and developmental milestones. While I truly value working with young children, I am currently seeking an opportunity that offers greater flexibility while still allowing me to use my skills, reliability, and caregiving experience in a meaningful way.
