A little bit about me

Growing up with two older sisters, I always found myself wanting a younger sibling of my own. Someone to watch out for the way my sisters watched out for me.
As I grew older, I gravitate towards jobs that allow me to do just that. To take care of others younger than myself- to offer advice and guide them in the right direction.
I approach every child through a lens of empathy, and that above all else helps to build their trust.
Taking care of children in any way is endlessly fulfilling, because you get to witness the moments of development that simply take your breathe away. As they development so do we- children are some of our greatest teachers.

A little bit about me

I have worked with children my whole life. As the second oldest of six kids I was always hands on with helping take care of them. While I was in high school I took part in helping teach preschoolers for two years and I also worked at a private elementary school as a preschool teacher after graduation. I have babysat and nannied special needs children. My favorite age group to work with is infants, my last two family's have all been for infants and toddlers before they either went to preschool or day care. It is so much fun seeing their milestones being achieved and helping them get there to achieve them!
