I specialize in Kindergarten readiness for preschoolers or for whom kindergarten will be their first classroom experience. Working with children has been my passion and profession for 15 years. I have a masters degree in Child Development and a bachelors degree in Developmental Psychology. I work for one of the nation's leading child development research and educational institutions and teach at the college level within psychology and early education departments. I love what I do and working with children reminds me of that every day. I'm up to date with the curriculum and readiness concepts used by the state of IL for kindergarteners. A session might look like exploring math concepts while using movement outside, drawing out a story to incorporate literacy, and using familiar names and routines to build upon ways to begin writing. Or, we may work on social skills like turn taking, listening, and empathy through pretend play. I'd love to hear how I can work with your family!
