Homeschool mom for 6 years, ballet/tap/jazz instructor for children ages 2-12, masters degree, and no desire to return to a "regular" job. I'd rather hang out with children and engage in age appropriate creative play, story time, dress-up, listening to music, building blocks, science projects, cooking creations, library visits, butterfly museum, walks to the park, playing a game or putting puzzles together. I am highly creative and adaptable. I feel it is my responsibility to make activities available, interesting, varied, and child centered. Everything a child does is an integral part of the learning process. If they like digging in dirt we can plant a garden. The next day we may wash bikes, or play catch, or paint with bubbles. Every developmental stage is subtly unique. I will connect quickly to your child and strive to make your child's time enriching and pleasant. I'm also adept at letting multiple ages Read more work at their skill level and area of interest. I am also able to take children to activities/classes. I am flexible in working with all ages infant and up. I believe strongly in mutual kindness and respect and will teach these values in every interaction. I can work with you on individual scheduling and payment fees. I will establish open communication and dialogue to ensure I'm meeting your child's needs. I am sincerely looking forward to meeting you and child.
