Hello, my name is Tierra Smith! I'm glad to inform you that your search stops here! Collectively, I've cared after many children over the course of 5 years despite my 25 year old self. If I were to describe myself, I'd say I'm flexible, professional, creative, vibrant, nurturing, organized and detail-oriented. I am willing and capable of building good rapport with children, of being attentive and sensitive to the needs of children AND families, I can easily accept direction, I'm proficient in communicating/collaborating effectively with children/families and if I may add, I have a wonderful personality! : ) I will transform myself to better suit the needs and desires of your child/children at any cost. To include, I am a Pre-Kindergarten teacher's assistant in the Lincoln Park Area who's constantly setting goals and seeking challenges with the intent to advance, universally. Due to my background and experience in education, the Read more skills I've developed and are continuously developing, can and will be useful in caring for your child! (Certfied CPR/First Aid) Key Note: I'm a non-smoker, comfortable with pets and I'm willing to travel to and from. I can provide a vehicle and clean driving record (if necessary) and I'm very flexible!
