Hi! I am currently a full time graduate student at Southern Connecticut State University working on a masters in both English/Teacher Certification Grades 7-12 and Early Childhood Education/Special Education. This past school year I worked as a substitute teacher at Unquowa School for ages 3-13. I have also worked at Coleytown Elementary School in Westport, Ct as a regular education teacher in a special education preschool. I worked as a nanny for a family with toddler twins and an infant and for a family with a young girl and boy. As a nanny I like to fill our days exploring all the numerous children activities in Connecticut, including visiting museums, aquariums, libraries, playgrounds and beaches! I am a very easy-going yet scheduled babsitter, who is able to balance affection and structure extremely well, allowing children a structured environment to develop a newfound sense of independence.
