A little bit about me
In addition to my degree, I have aquired about 4-5 years of child care experience working both in high quality care centers and homes. My specialty is with infants and toddlers, but I adore children of all ages and am well equipped to navigate a variety of developmental stages and ages given my education and abundance of hands-on expericence from different communities.
I also have extensive training in the following areas: active supervision, positive interactions, CPR/First Aid, evidence based curriculum building/facilitation, and the like.
I have great experience working with children and providing exceptional care regardless of setting or available resources! I look forward to connecting with families here and providing any support that I can.
