A little bit about me

I’m 24 years old with a B.S. in Microbiology and Biomedicine from Clemson University’s Honors College, where I spent 4 years working with children of diverse ages and backgrounds as Director of the afterschool tutoring program.



My favorite part of childcare is helping kids connect learning to their natural curiosity and creativity through art, outdoor exploration, and their own unique interests. As someone who overcame struggling with school and structure as a child, I have become passionate about helping kids integrate skills and play into everyday routines to turn them into something exciting and long-lasting.



I also have extensive experience with tutoring, homework help, and helping children build organizational, routine, and problem-solving skills that will support their success well into adulthood.

Hello! My name is Adde, I’m a 20 year old college student studying pre-vet sciences. I am new to Greenville and I am looking to be able to make new fun memories while helping local families meet the needs of their children. I love the outdoors and am very active. Before moving here I was playing soccer in college. I have always loved children and have previous experience with elementary and toddler children.
