Through my studies as well as personal and professional development opportunities, I have had the pleasure of working with children and families for 10+ years. Over the years, I have enjoyed nurturing and encouraging a child's development in various environments, including the home, school, and social service setting. With my background in Counseling & Health Psychology, I have also studied child & adolescent development which I feel has further enhanced my skills as a child care provider. Most recently, I have worked in a social service position in which I was responsible for the screening and enrollment of youth and volunteers to participate in a mentoring program which seeks to improve positive outcomes for youth. Furthermore, I have served as a tutor and mentor for elementary aged students with the mission to improve literacy in our schools. Lastly, one important quality I feel I bring to the table, is my Read more passion for learning, teaching, and helping others. Hobbies and keen interests of mine include: ceramics, photography, language learning, travel, and healthy living.
