About Ariel

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, my name is Ariel. I am an enthusiastic, compassionate, creative, care-giver with 15+ years childcare experience. I am Waldorf trained through Lifeway's North America. I specialize in infant toddler years. I have closely guided 8+ children through years of developmental support. My heart is fully involved in the care I bring to children. I sing songs about nature, bring attention to seasons, animals, social cooperation, and enhancement of children's natural abilities without interference of them. I encourage the use of little to no media (phone, television). I do encourage lots of outdoor, creative, and age appropriate play activities which ignite critical and imaginative thinking. I am actively seeking a like minded family with 1-2 children 3 or older. My little boy will be 3 years old in May; he is very well spoken, imaginative, kind, good with sharing, and LOVES other kids. I hope to find a family who is open to me bringing my happy boy along while I care for their children.

Ariel is amazing. I have used her on and off for the last 16 years,and will continue to as long as I need help with my kids. Her dedication to the children she cares for can't be matched. If you are looking for someone to sit by while your child entertains themselves with screens, she is not for you. She will engage your children in songs, games, imagination play, but not a device. Also, her son is a absolute gem. Always a pleasure to be around. There are lots of babysitters out there, but few are truly care givers. If I were the person reading this I'd hire her, I will be.
