Minneapolis, MN
$25/hr
Full-time
< 1 year experience

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Chantel, and I’m someone who genuinely enjoys working with children and supporting families. I’m currently pursuing a career in Occupational Therapy, which has strengthened my understanding of child development, sensory needs, emotional regulation, and how to create supportive, engaging environments for kids of all ages.

I bring patience, creativity, and intentionality to every caregiving role. Whether I’m planning a sensory-friendly activity, helping with homework, encouraging independence in daily routines, or simply spending quality time playing, I focus on meeting each child where they’re at. My OT path has helped me develop skills in observation, communication, and adapting tasks so that kids feel confident, capable, and supported.

A little bit about me: I’m responsible, compassionate, and committed to being a positive, reliable presence for families. I value open communication, consistency, and creating a safe, fun space for children to grow.
