I'm Ozioma, a dedicated childcare professional with a passion for nurturing and supporting the growth of young minds. With a degree in Biology and Behavioral Health from Penn State University, I bring both academic knowledge and practical experience to the table. My journey in childcare began as a nanny for a family of two, one of whom required specialized care due to their unique needs. This invaluable experience taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and individualized attention when it comes to childcare. In addition to my role as a nanny, I have served as a trusted babysitter for numerous families within our community, providing safe and engaging care for children of all ages. Furthermore, my tenure as a camp counselor at Mayo Beach Day Camp for three years allowed me to create memorable experiences for children in a group setting while fostering a supportive and enriching environment. Growing up Read more as the second of seven siblings, I've been surrounded by the energy and excitement of children throughout my life, instilling in me a deep appreciation for the joys and challenges of childcare. I am committed to utilizing my expertise and passion for childcare to provide exceptional care and support to families in need. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my skills to your team and make a positive impact on the lives of children under my care.
