Hello Families! My name is Andrea and I am a Developmental Specialist who is looking to find a family (or possibly two) interested in having a highly qualified individual provide childcare and learning opportunities to their children. I am engaging with children and have a natural gift to connect with them and help them follow everyday routines and expectations typical for their age range. I promote play skills as they are very effective for language development, I have knowledge and training in social and emotional learning ( i. e. helping kids learn emotions and how to cope with them) and most importantly, I care about kids and always model kindness and respect towards them so they demonstrate it back to others. I have great references which I would be happy to put you in contact with. I am available to chat more about this so please don't hesitate to reach out to me and schedule a time. I appreciate you taking the time to read this and consider me.
