A little bit about me

I am a Music Education major in the voice program, planning to start student teaching in the Fall and graduating in December! I have experience with all ages in daycare, elementary/middle/high schools, and overnight summer camps. I provide excellent, safe, holistic childcare to all ages! I am passionate about education and literacy, and I believe in the ability of music to advance literacy, social, behavioral, and critical thinking skills in all ages. My skills include great communication with children and parents, safety always, and empathetic care. I am confident with diapers, snacks, homework, meaningful play, and anything else your child needs. I am a traveler and have volunteered in classrooms in both Italy and Spain. I'm a Spanish learner and feel confident navigating language differences!

I have completed background checks for New Hanover County Schools and other nanny services, and can share upon request!
