A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Naomi Love, and I am a recent DePaul graduate. My degree is in Peace, Justice, and Conflict Studies, and I have two minors. One is in African Black and Diaspora Studies, while the other is in Social Justice and Education. My academic studies have helped me discover my passion for teaching. Currently, I am working as a guest teacher for a company called Kokua, but I would love to branch out to nannying. I am energetic and passionate, and I understand children and the importance of their development. Social, emotional, and physical well-being is vital to a child's success; this ideology is something I honed in on in my university years. I am a big fan of movies, books, and the outdoors. I would love to encourage your kids to sing, dance, play, draw, and find their passions in the world. I have worked with many different age groups as a guest teacher. Additionally, my father recently had a new baby who is a year old; I have had lots of experience with him.
