A little bit about me
Hello!
I graduated from Teachers College in 2010 with a degree in Curriculum and Teaching for children birth - 2nd grade, in both general education and special education. I have assisted baby sign language classes, taught enrichment classes for 2-4 year olds, taught PreK full-time, and have been a nanny for children between 6 months to 9 years old.
I adore children and find it easy to connect with them. I’m skilled at handling separation anxiety, behavioral challenges, sibling/peer conflicts, and keeping things fun. I love to be outside, sing, dance, read books, and talk about animals, nature, and the way the world works!
I enjoy helping kids experiment, take (reasonable) risks, explore their curiosities, and develop a strong, positive self of self and empathy for others.

A little bit about me
Hello! I'm Raven. I'm currently a Psychology student, going into my sophomore year of college. I love children and playing with children of all ages, and as someone pretty intact with their youth, I know how to connect with and entertain well. I also specialize in cooking, nutrition, and routine. Education is a huge priority of mine, and I will ensure that your child efficiently spends their time learning (in many forms) under my care. I also have taken First Aid, which taught CPR, and I have a certification from Red Cross.

A little bit about me
I watched Mamma Mia a few years ago and it changed my life. Some movies or stories just do that to you, no shame. I ended up buying a one way ticket to Europe after college and spent months on and off traveling. I eventually found myself on this small market garden in Scotland that...hate to be dramatic, but shook me from my sleeping self. I was planting, harvesting, and eating incredible produce alongside like-minded people. A really special intro into food and hospitality. 3 years later, after working on more farms in Michigan, restaurants in NYC, and some traveling in between, I've landed in Philly. I moved here a year and a half ago to help open a small byob alongside a chef I used to work with in New York. There are few things like inviting people in and sharing food and drinks. But I've come to the point where I want to travel a bit again! So here I am, excited to share food with your cutie pop lemon drops in exchange for a few dollars. :) Mine as well just say it, right?

A little bit about me
In the past was an art teacher/babysitter for two girls ages 4 and 7. Thought then twice a month for a year. I also have 4 younger siblings that I take care of very often so I am experienced in managing all age groups. I do not have a drivers license but I love to walk and explore, and I do not mind house chores. I currently attended art school and I work as a line cook.
I'd describe my personality as honest, loving, charismatic
I like working with kids because I adore them. I have a soft spot for new borns and infants especially. I grew up with many siblings of various ages so I have gotten accustomed to child care
I'm looking for a job that allows me to be creative, meal prepping, and fun art projects. Minor flexibility and a good pay rate. Something I can do during the summer and can possibly adjust with me when I go back to school.
In my spare time, I like to read, cook, bake, watch tv, go on long walks, try new cafes, play video games, go to the gym.
