Hello! 👋
I’m a graduate from Hope College and have recently returned to the U.S. after spending time in France. I’ve been working with children since high school and absolutely love it!

Over the years, I’ve taught kids how to swim, worked as a teacher’s assistant, tutored underprivileged students, helped in daycares, and even worked abroad in France as an English teacher. These experiences have given me the opportunity to work with children of all ages and backgrounds.

I’m currently studying part-time through an online university, which makes my schedule very flexible.

I speak English, Spanish, and French, and I’m known for being calm, gentle, and caring. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can learn and grow.
