About Rita

Experience: 3 yrs

Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's a passion. As a college graduate with three years of childcare experience, I find immense joy in fostering children's growth. My Christian values drive me to provide the best opportunities for every child. I am patient, creative, and friendly, and I'm comfortable caring for up to two children aged 0-11. I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities. I prioritize open communication with parents, adapting to your preferred method for daily updates or addressing any concerns. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and can assist with cooking and meal preparation. I am certified in CPR and First Aid responder with a back ground as an EMT, and over 30+ years in the health industry. I hope to bring my love for learning and play to your family.
