Hi! My name is Kylie! I have been working with kids for over 7 years and have spent the last two years as an infant specialist in a Montessori preschool in Bellevue. I deeply value the Montessori and Waldorf philosophies and have been so grateful to fine tune those teaching skills. I believe children learn best through play and exploration, and my approach nurtures and fosters those desires above anything else. I am also a lesbian asian woman, so diversity, equality, and inclusion are also at the core of my personal beliefs and what I teach. I am currently looking for a long term position (about 1 year) with a family or families that align with my philosophies and want to grow together, while I obtain an additional certificate to build my future career. I look forward to meeting you!
To whom it may concern, I am writing to offer my highest recommendation for Kylie in her future professional endeavors. Having known her and depended on her since the day I met her almost 2 years ago, I can attest to the fact that she is resilient, highly engaged and passionate about her work and her relationships day in and day out. Throughout our professional relationship having Kylie as the teacher and part-time caregiver of my twin boys, I have been extremely impressed with her ability to manage multiple tasks at hand and stay very organized and focused throughout. She has exemplary administrative skills, along with fantastic parent engagement and extremely successful developmental support with the children. I have also seen her as a true leader and problem solver amongst her peers and watched her infectious positivity and engagement with her counterparts and students. She is prepared for any task at hand, and also very eager for any and every challenge that comes her way. In addition to her technical and professional skills, Kylie exudes an incredibly loving and enthusiastic energy that has not only brought me a sense of ease with the trust and loyalty component I have with her and my children, but I know she brings that same compassion and dedication into everything she does in life and how she treats everyone around her. I wholeheartedly would endorse Kylie for any opportunity and believe you would be very lucky to have her as an asset to your organization.
