A little bit about me

Hello! I'm 19, and love working with children! I was previously certified in both CPR and First Aid, but my certifications expired. I'm still knowledgeable on the two, and more than willing to administer aid. I'm happy to do light housework while taking care of little ones, chores like dishwashing, laundry, and sweeping or dusting. I can also do meal preps as I have previous kitchen experience, and other chores can be requested to me! Additionally, I love doing crafts and would be elated to help your child with art projects! I can also assist with schoolwork. I'm content to work in any layout of household and can adjust to fit your needs. I also have a car and license, so I would be able to take kiddos to the park or on fun trips!

A little bit about me

I’m from Galax, Va but recently graduated from Emory and Henry University with my bachelors in psychology. Throughout college, I’ve done lots of volunteer work with children because I hope to one day become a child’s behavioral therapist. I will start graduate school online in the fall to eventually receive my masters degree. However, in the meantime, I would love to continue working with children, as I would love to gain all the knowledge and experience possible before starting my career!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Mrs. Holly! I have had the privilege of working with young children and their families for over 25 years and with this, I have gained many successful learning tools, a Bachelors degree in early education and lifelong relationships. Teaching is a passion of mine and I believe each child is their own, unique individual. Children thrive with routine, structure, positive guidance, games & fun learning activities while providing them safely, love and support. I taught a kindergarten readiness program at a licensed, 5 star pre-school in N.C. for 10 years and then I was the center director there for another 10 years; it was a true honor. My goal for every child is to feel important, capable, excited to learn and safe.
Thank you for your time, Hugs from Mrs. Holly
