A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kayleigh. I see myself as having a very bubbly and fun personality in my opinion. I love to go on small adventures, like the park, museum, library and just seeing nature. I have my CPR/First Aid Certification and I used to work as a daycare teacher where I also did a bunch of trainings for working with children. I also babysat from when I was 13-16. I understand kids pretty well because at the daycare I worked with all different age groups. I see myself as having patience and listening skills. Patience is key because kids are still learning and finding their own ways, so it’s important to make sure they are being safe, but also having patience with them so they can grow and learn. Listening is also super important to me. Kids love to tell you things and they just want you to listen to them even when it makes no sense. Working with kids has always been something I am very passionate about and watching them grow is amazing. I do drive and have my own transportation. 🌸

A little bit about me

I have loved working with children as long as I can remember. I earned my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education and my masters in Speech-Language Pathology. I have worked as a preschool teacher, toddler teacher, a nanny, and most recently (the last 12 years) as a Speech Language Pathologist. I love what I do but am feeling burnt out by all the paperwork and data collection. I miss focusing my attention on the needs and interests of the children I work with. I love creating opportunities for play and thinking on my feet to keep interest and enthusiasm going.
