About Shelby

I'm a caregiver and tutor with four years of experience supporting children ages 3-16. If you are looking for someone to care for your child while also incorporating learning and engaging activities, I'm the right match for you. I've worked with a variety of students, including those with special learning needs. I bring patience and encouragement to my sessions, aiming to create a supportive, yet structured environment where kids can learn and grow. My interest in working with kids began in a developmental psychology research lab, where I investigated how learning evolves throughout childhood. That experience gave me a deeper understanding of how children think and develop-which continues to shape my approach today. I combine my knowledge as a researcher with my hands-on experience as a tutor to provide effective, informed care. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy yoga, cooking, and being with friends, family, and my cat, Pepper. I'm happy to connect you with my references upon request.
