All throughout high school, I consistently babysat for three different families. After graduating, I worked in a daycare with children as a lead teacher for the 3-5 age groups. I continued this job for 1 year until I relocated to South Carolina to attend Clemson University. During my four years at Clemson, I held a steady job as well as volunteered in a mental hospital in my spare time. I obtained a degree in psychology and sociology with a focus on child development.
Upon graduation, I ventured on a mission trip to Jamaica where I worked with underprivileged children for 6 weeks. I lived in a very poverty stricken community and I made home visits to 4 different families with young children. I taught the children basic skills, played with them, provided them with educational toys, and loved them. I also assisted in teaching the young parents in the community on proper child rearing methods. I gave them alternative ways for discipline and helped them with learning proper nutrition along with any other question they asked.
Along with all my experience working with children, I also have two young nieces and a nephew whom I have spent a lot of time caring for. I was a nanny for my first niece when my sister returned to work and I spent day and night with her from the time she was 5 months until she was 10 months old.
I moved to Mount Pleasant in April 2010 and I worked as a nanny for a family from April until October 2010 when the family had to relocate for work. They had one child and I started caring for her when she was 3 months old.
In October 2010 I worked as a teacher at a local preschool. I worked here for 1 year where I had a classroom to myself of four 1-year-olds. I have been involved in a nanny share as well as cared for various infants with special needs from October 2011-May 2012. I am a recent newlywed so I took the summer off to transition into the new lifestyle. :)
I love doing art, singing, dancing, reading, and anything that makes learning fun! I'm a big believer in fresh air so I try to take advantage of the gorgeous days and spend as much time outdoors taking walks, exploring nature, going for picnics, etc.
