My name is Michaela Rooney and I am a second grade school teacher here in Chicago. I have a masters in education and have been working in schools for 6 years now. I have worked in both general and special education and have worked with a diverse group of learners with many different needs. Before that I babysat and nannyied throughout high school and college and have always enjoyed working with children. I love reading, music, the outdoors, arts and crafts and playing games. Just like in my classroom I love to bring education and loads of fun to everyday life and teach children the beauty of learning. As a caregiver you would be ensured your children were in great hands. I am Red Cross first aid and cpr trained and epi pen trained. I am responsible, prompt, and always keep great communication with parents. I know your child is Read more your number one and if hired I would always be sure to treat them as such.
