My name is Marta Hoffer. I am 22 and I live in Wheaton. I have been working with children for about 7 years. During that time I was a camp counselor, both for adolescents with special needs, and for preschool children. I have also been a temporary, part time nanny for a family of 3 children, and another with an infant girl. Throughout the 7 years I have been an occasional babysitter for 20+ families, currently I sit for 4-5 families on a frequent basis. I also have a year and a half of experience at a daycare center, working with children ages 4 months to 6 years. I have taken 12 credit hours of Early Childhood classes at the College of DuPage. I love to do fun activities with children, including songs, crafts and games. I also have taught basic sign language to infants, to facilitate earlier communication. I Read more feel that children learn a lot through free play, and I encourage it. I also feel it is important to read to children as much as possible, and to engage them in guided activities that will spark their imagination and learning. I have a full, detailed resume with references, upon request.
