A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Paige, a recent college graduate with a degree in Biomedical Health Science and a passion for working with children. I have experience as a private nanny, YMCA childcare provider, and lead counselor at Adam's Camp, where I worked with children of all ages, including those with special needs. Through these roles, I've developed strong skills in creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment while helping with daily routines, homework, meals, and engaging activities. I'm patient, dependable, energetic, and truly enjoy building meaningful relationships with the children and families I work with. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives parents peace of mind while ensuring their children feel happy, safe, and encouraged to learn and grow.
