I am a nature educator by trade with outdoor summer camp experience who got into sitting via my 13-year-old brother! While I'm new to the professional world of childcare, I'm passionate about enriching day-to-day lives of children through helping them learn, play, and explore the world. Musts for me are patience, presence, and gentle firmness. I'm also a devoted cook, artist, and gardener, and love to use these skills with kids in interactive activities. I am available weekday afternoons and weekends, and am CPR + First Aid certified.
