A little bit about me

I’m a college student at Saint Xavier University pursuing a degree in education. I have a strong passion for working with children and their families. I am all about creating a fun and positive environment for children to learn and grow. I have 5+ years of experience working in childcare. I worked in a daycare for 3 years providing care for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years old and on weekends I provided babysitting for families at the daycare when needed. I have worked as a preschool aide and substitute teacher at Pope John Paul II Catholic School for 1 year and I am currently working as a preschool aide in the PreK 3 classroom at St. Alexander Catholic School. Outside of work and school, I enjoy reading, going to the gym, walking my dog, and spending time with family and friends. I enjoy building positive relationships, learning new skills, and taking on responsibilities that allow me to grow personally and professionally. I am committed to giving my best effort in everything I do.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I am pretty creative when it comes to activities. I take a lot of my activity ideas straight from school classrooms so they are strictly child centered and stem from play based learning. I enjoy engaging in arts and crafts activities. I find sensory play activities very effective especially for younger children. I enjoy putting together outdoor activities like gardening, water games, scavenger hunts, obstacle courses, and more. I also truly enjoy reading books and creating an atmosphere where children feel like they are actually in the book.
