A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Ava M. I am currently a college student in school to become an Elementary School teacher. I am a former preschool teacher and have professional experience with children aged 3 months-5 years old. I worked primarily with toddlers at my previous preschool. My approach to childcare is a wonderful mix of free play and play based academics. I emphasize the importance of building language skills, alphabet recognition and spontaneous words, as well as fine and gross motor skills.
I have experience implementing physical and verbal exercises for toddlers, given at the instruction of licensed speech and occupational therapists.

I have so much passion for the growth of children and I am so excited to be able to help a family during this wonderful time in their littles life!
