Art, creativity and experience fuel the soul. I feel that if children are given the correct age appropriate tools to express themselves and their feelings they will develop the capacity to communicate better, be less stressed and anxious and learn to live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. My name is Ashley and I'm 33 years old. For the past 7 years I have been studying, observing and practicing the pedagogy of Waldorf Education. I have 190 theory hours with the Arcturus Rudolf Steiner Teacher Program plus 50 observational hours in the classroom. Working 10+years as a language and handwork teacher, 3 years as a Nanny for a busy family in Chicago, plus 2 years living and working abroad in Spain, my passion of working one-on-one with children has strengthened throughout my professional development. I possess the ability to relate to different people of all ages and of different backgrounds Read more and cultures and adapt easily to new environments. I have excellent communication skills and work to provide a creative, inspiring, stern but stress free environment. I'm confident to say that I am a great candidate to care for young children and would be an excellent asset to your family. Thank you for your consideration and good luck in your search!
