Hi! I'm a certified elementary educator with 5 years of classroom teaching experience and many years of experience caring for and working with children. I have always loved being around kids and creating positive, supportive environments where they feel safe, valued, and encouraged to be themselves. My background as a teacher has helped me develop strong skills in patience, communication, organization, and creating engaging activities for children of all ages. I enjoy helping kids learn, explore their interests, and have fun through creative activities, games, reading, and hands-on experiences. Outside of working with children, I enjoy reading, exercising, cooking, baking, and spending time with my friends and family. I'm a caring, dependable, and responsible person who would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a fun, safe, and positive experience for your children.
It was a pleasure having Madelyn in our home, as she watched our son R. . Madelyn has such a playful spirit and demeanor which makes her great working with kids. Her background in education gives her the perfect balance of patience and kindness, and it showed with our little rascal! She was such a great addition to our family & our only critique is that she didn’t stay longer!
