About Miles

I'd describe my personality as earnest, open-minded, and silly! I like working with kids because they help me build new perspectives on myself and the other adults in my life. They fulfill me and give me so much hope for the future of our world. I'm looking for a job that welcomes creative expression, play, and gentleness. I started working with kids when I was a young teenager. I assisted in arts classes for kids and continued this work through babysitting, children's librarianship, and eventually teaching at a Montessori preschool. In my spare time, I like to take long walks with my dog, paint and collage, read, and cook yummy food! One thing you should know about me is that I am very interested in working with LGBT families and children. My top 3 child care skills are co-regulation and nervous system work, experiential learning, and boundary/consent based care.
