Hello everyone! Ny name is Julie and I am searching for a full-time nannying position that will start in May. I am an early education major with a concentration in special education at Temple University. I am currently a virtual student teacher for a second grade classroom. As an education major, I have had field experience in kindergarten, second grade, and fourth grade classrooms. The last two summers, I worked as an assistant/substitute teacher at the Goddard School (Bailiwick) in Doylestown in the infant classroom and "First Steps" classroom. I would love to entertain your kids with exciting lesson plans and activities. This would be great practice for me when I become a teacher and I also just love working with children!! I have been babysitting since I was about 13 years old. I hope you consider me for the position! Thank you!! *If you need to see a criminal background check, fingerprint check, or child abuse history clearance, I have these on file.*

Corri understands children who learn differently very well. My son has Asperger's, Anxiety and ADHD so learning his Bar Mitzvah Torah portion was a bit of a challenge. He really blew us all away and I feel that hiring Corri to help him was the #1 reason along with everyone's flexibility. Corri shared a lot of our values, she was calm and patient, and was super tolerant of al of our animals climbing all over her! She always took our son's needs and wants into consideration and would ask him directly how he felt about things. Our son was able to do so much more than we had expected! Corri made the process seamless and communicated well with our synagogue. Corri has a lot of knowledge about challenges that come with ADHD and was also very patient with us when we were stressed as well. Even post-Bar Mitzvah, Corri has stayed in touch and truly cares about how our son is doing 2 years later. I highly recommend Corri for this type of learner, or a traditional learner.
