A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Naia. I'm a college student currently majoring in Environmental Studies with minors in Spanish and Food Studies. I take a very holistic approach to childcare! With a background in Waldorf I work to foster creativity, imaginative play, and, if tutoring etc. is wanted, focus on interdisciplinary approaches to learning and education. I've worked with all age groups from 0 to 13 and 14 year olds. I've worked in many different environments as well. I work to build strong relationships and to be a source of support and fun:) I'm a quick learner, clear communicator and really love working with kids.

Natalie J. - Seeking Work in Portland

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Natalie! I am a graduation senior from UVM. I am from San Francisco, but have lived in Burlington the past four years and am not quite ready to leave! I have about 8 years of experience in childcare and would consider myself a fun, adventurous, patient, attentive, and responsible care giver. Through my various babysitting experiences, I have learned about the importance of a balance between responsibility and providing an exciting and enjoyable environment for children. I worked at a summer camp the past two summers in which I was responsible for creating positive learning spaces for groups of children while ensuring to be attentive to their needs. Given the current state and uncertainty of our world, I believe this is a time in which everybody, children especially, need positive and motivating influences in their lives. I would be happy to provide tutoring and/or other forms of educational learning to help address the issues of lack of school and/or camps.
