About Valerie

I like working with kids because I love teaching and inspiring as well as having fun and being silly! I started working with kids when I was 13 starting with my little brother and cousins. In my spare time, I like to do something creative like sewing, baking, or writing, or something active like dancing, walking my dog, or going to the gym! One thing you should know about me is I am very creative and will encourage kids to use their imagination and participate in screen-free activities. My skills include patience for communicating and learning, creativity and problem solving, and empathy and understanding.
