More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

For the past two years, I have proudly worked as a 2’s teacher, where I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience supporting toddlers during such an important stage of development. In this role, I have helped children build early language skills, social-emotional growth, and independence through structured activities, play-based learning, and consistent routines. Working with two-year-olds has strengthened my patience, creativity, and ability to manage a classroom while creating a safe, nurturing environment. Over these two years, I have built strong relationships with both children and their families, and I continue to find joy in watching my students reach new milestones and grow more confident each day.
