About Shannon

Experience: 15 yrs

With 15 years of experience nurturing young minds, I bring a passion for fostering children's growth and development to every interaction. My background includes graduate coursework and certification as a teacher, which has equipped me with valuable insights into early child development. I am also certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am patient, creative, and comfortable enforcing household rules while engaging children with outdoor games, puzzles, and educational activities. I have experience with special needs children. I communicate with parents through verbal updates and follow their preferred methods. I am happy to assist with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, and travel. My car and comfort with pets make daily routines easier. I am comfortable caring for one child. I find immense joy in watching children learn and explore the world around them.
