A little bit about me
From having 9 cousins between one and two decades younger than me, to taking child development and child psychology courses, I have been always been interested in caring for children and helping them grow into productive, well-rounded adults with a strong moral foundation.
I have worked for two separate daycares that also involved part time nanny positions for some of the families, which has given me plenty of additional experience when caring for kids. I know that I would be the perfect fit for your family.
I adore caring for little ones and watching them grow. I am a firm believer that children are sponges. They will learn as much as you are willing to teach them. I create all of my own lesson plans for the daycare where I am currently the lead teacher. Being a high-energy, hands-on teacher ensures that kids are always learning something new!
Safety is also a priority with children, and therefore, I ensure that I am CPR as well as first aid certified when caring for any child.
If you chose to hire me, I am available to your family at your chosen times. I am very flexible with hours and am happy to work with you to create the best experience for your little ones.
I know that, with me, your children would thrive at academics while having plenty of fun, just as kids should always be able to do.
