A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Bethany. I’m graduating with my associate’s degree in Child Development and continuing my education toward my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Development. Working with children is something I’m genuinely passionate about, and I’ve built strong hands‑on experience with children from infancy through age 12.
I’ve worked in childcare centers, after‑school programs, and early learning environments, which has helped me build strong skills in homework support, play‑based learning, behavior guidance, and creating a safe, calm environment. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and being in school keeps me up‑to‑date on child development and age‑appropriate learning.
Families describe me as responsible, communicative, and someone who truly cares about children’s growth and well‑being. My goal is always to meet children where they are developmentally and help them feel confident, understood, and safe.
