A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Bree! I am a 25 year old college student. I have my associates degree and am finishing up my bachelors in psychology next year!
I began working with children as a 12 year old. I loved babysitting, and volunteered at my local library helping teach children to read! Since then, I have worked as a tutor, violin teacher, and was employed at a residential treatment center for teenagers as well.
I have experience caring for children ranging from a few months old, to 17 years old! Most of my experience has been caring for children from 2-6, and 12-17, but I enjoy working with any age!
The thing I love most about working with kids is their curiosity and excitement. It can be very contagious!

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Abi! I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from UCSC & 3 years of supporting children's growth.

My goal is to serve as a safe and trusted figure in children's lives, guiding their growth, resilience, and expansion of their skill sets for long-term development.

In my previous roles as a Preschool Teacher's Aide, Special Education Paraeducator, and Behavior Technician, I gained skills & experiences in supporting those from diverse backgrounds with unique needs.

Working closely with those with learning and behavioral difficulties gave me opportunities to expand my adaptability, behavior management, and creating supportive, structured routines based on families’ needs.

I know how to balance being fun & laidback with rigidity and following through with rules & expectations. I am creative & art-oriented, so I like to incorporate children's interests and passions into hands-on games and activities to build their creativity, confidence, and self-expression.
