About Carol

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing children has always been my passion. I have been a career teacher before raising my own children and offering daycare in my home for 10+years. I have early childhood training and formal experience with special needs children. My approach is patient, creative, and attentive. I am comfortable caring for multiple children and enforcing family rules. I enjoy exploring each developmental stage of growth through dramatic play, sensory activities, literacy practice, hands-on science projects, cooking with kids, outdoor activities, nutrition advocacy, and social skill building. I communicate with parents through daily reports, verbal updates, and however they prefer to dialogue. I am also happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, laundry, and pet care as needed. I hold certifications in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am eager to bring my experience and dedication to your family.

I have known Carol for many years, she was both of my children’s teachers and we requested her for our daughter after having such a wonderful experience with her as our teacher for our son. She is so loving and kind and cared for my children like they were her own. We will forever be grateful for all she has done for them!
