A little bit about me
My name is Astride and I have been working in the childcare industry for over 20 years. From the age of 12, families have entrusted me with the care of their precious children, and I feel honored.
I offer families a great deal of flexibility and I've traveled with my employers, done overnights, and I worked as a live-in. I am a pro when it comes to establishing sleep schedules, potty training, developing comprehension skills, and implementing effective disciplinary systems that concentrate on taking preventative measures and positive redirection-- translation: I can help with toddler tantrums. I've worked with children of all ages from newborns, to preteens.
I use creative methods in order to reach children. I'm known for using my obsession with musicals to orchestrate musical numbers using stuffed animals. I am a big believer of educational fun time-- and I like to keep kids busy with adventurous outings, art, music, dance, science experiments, baking projects and reading. If your kids don't like to read, I'll turn them...and that's a promise. I focus on nourishing independence by letting children practice things on their own in a safe environment, offering options, while setting boundaries. Due to my methods I've developed strong and lasting bonds with the kids I watch and their parents. I have worked with parents with demanding professions, and I make it my top priority to be a team player who works for the betterment of the children.
I am CPR certified, and I am up to date with the TDAP vaccination, and TB test. A few extra perks is that I can help with beginner to intermediate French, I love to cook healthy and tasty meals, and I'm always up for embarrassing myself for a good laugh.
