Bedford$20/hr | 6 years experienceSeeing excitement from kids as they master new skills inspired me to pursue a career in education. I’d describe myself as warm, patient, and dependable, while also being energetic and creative. I believe in balancing structure with fun and always bring a nurturing, positive attitude.Communication with parents is very important to me. I share highlights from the day, celebrate milestones, and address concerns respectfully. I’m comfortable following and enforcing household rules, knowing that children thrive on consistency and clear boundaries. I also enjoy engaging kids in imaginative play, arts & crafts, outdoor activities, music, and games that encourage creativity and teamwork. I treat every child as if they were my own, making their safety, happiness, and development my top priorities. I’ve worked in daycare for 5–6 years with children from infants to kindergarten age, earned my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education, and completed my master’s in Elementary Education.
