A little bit about me

For over 15 years, I've been nurturing young minds and creating enriching experiences for children. My passion stems from witnessing their growth and knowing I'm making a positive impact. I have some college experience, including Early Childhood Education (ECE) and Early Child Development coursework. I am patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and always prioritize open communication with parents and children. I am comfortable caring for up to 3 children at a time. Knowing I can contribute to a child's well-being brings me immense joy, and I look forward to potentially becoming a part of your family's support system.

I think it is also very important to add that I am allergic to cats. Sorry.
