About Sharon

I have 5 years' experience in childcare, as both a nanny and as a childcare center teacher. I am CPR and first aid certified and can provide references. I especially enjoy caring for infants, and use an approach guided by the RIE method of infant care. I believe all babies deserve respectful, gentle care, and work with parents as we observe baby's changing needs to try to best meet the needs of all. I also have a music education background, with a special interest in early childhood music. I enjoy designing musical experiences based on Edwin Gordon's Music Learning Theory (this is what Music Together bases their curriculum on). M A few things I like to let families know from the start: I am working on my comfort level with working in homes with dogs (not allergic, just a little nervous around them) so if you have a dog I'd be happy to do a meet and greet. I'm totally comfortable with cats. I don't drive children (have reliable transportation for myself)
