About
Hi, I've been working in childcare for the last 3 years! I have not only experience working in various standard daycares/preschools, I also have had experience working as an Assistant Toddler Guide in a Montessori School with toddlers. In addition, I also have had previous experience as a live-in nanny in which I practiced Montessori with that toddler.
I am very passionate about using a child-lead approach and I love to implement enriching activities with children whether that is reading books, music and movement, outdoor play, arts and crafts, etc! I am a perceptive and reliable individual who has a passion for taking care of kids, I love to help out around the house and meal prep, and am currently in the process of getting a Early Childhood Education degree. I make sure to keep up to date with CPR/ First Aid training to ensure safety.
I am excited to making lasting relationships with families! Can't wait to meet you!
