Experience: 20 yrs
Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, a calling I have pursued for over 20 years. As a Certified Teacher with a graduate degree, I bring a structured yet creative approach to care for children aged newborn to 12+. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment. My personality is patient, calm, and approachable, allowing me to connect easily with the three children I am comfortable supervising. I enjoy leading outdoor sports, puzzles, and educational games. I am happy to assist with light housekeeping, crafts, and swimming supervision. I follow your lead regarding household rules and provide updates through verbal communication, written reports, or texts. Whether we are tackling a complex puzzle or playing outside, I am genuinely excited to help your children thrive and reach their unique potential.
