About Natalie

I'm the oldest of three so I've been looking after pre-school and school-age kids for years. I've been a dancer for most of my life and I briefly taught ballet and tap to a class of 4-6 years old. Since I spent so much time at the dance studio, I often looked after pre-school age children as well as the teachers' kids. I was an after school mentor/tutor at Falling Creek Elementary (in Virginia) for 2nd-5th graders for a year and a half. As a mentor/tutor, I prepped students to pass their standardized tests and succeed in their classes. In addition, I worked as a unit assistant in the NICU/NACU caring for critically ill infants for almost 2 years. I recently graduated from the University of Kentucky with degrees in Chemical Engineering and Neuroscience, and I am currently a student at CHSU (hoping to become a pediatric physician). I know how to have fun and I love working with children -- it helps bring out the inner kid in me -- so I would love the opportunity to look after yours!
