A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Addison! I’m a responsible and caring caretaker who loves kids! I am CPR certified, and know basic first aid. I have been caring for children professionally for about four years. I do not believe in an excessive amount screen time and prefer to keep your child active and creating. I enjoy making well balanced and fun meals for your kids that have them feeling full, well still getting nutrients needed. (Including all picky eaters). I also believe that outside interaction is very important for a young developing mind and love to explore and play outside! If you have more questions, feel free contact me!

A little bit about me

Aside from my love of children and raising 2, (8 year old son and 20 year old bonus daughter) myself, I have also worked as an assistant in a phenomenal preschool, as well as grades K-2nd. I truly believe engaging children, encouraging a love of nature, animals, music & art and writing & reading at a young age is a wonderful foundation. I love “just” talking to children, hearing their ideas, guiding them towards the answer and/or how to instead of telling them what to do or managing them. I learned early, if you teach a child to learn to play and play to learn, they enjoy it and flourish.

I am back in school studying child psychology and earning my credentials.
