About Loretta

I'm a former first-grade teacher with over a decade of experience caring for and teaching children of all ages. My background spans classroom teaching, pediatric care, and garden-based education, giving me a well-rounded, hands-on approach to child development. I specialize in creating calm, structured environments where kids feel safe, supported, and engaged. I've worked with neurodivergent learners, English language learners, and children who thrive with extra patience and creativity. I'm CPR-certified, dependable, and skilled in routines, communication, and educational play. Whether I'm helping with homework, preparing meals, or easing into a bedtime routine, I show up with intention, warmth, and heart. I'm looking for a meaningful role where I can support families and be a steady, nurturing presence in a child's everyday life. In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, skating, and spending time in nature.
