I am an experienced caregiver and certified special education teacher looking for some summer work. I have worked with children of all ages and abilities for over 15 years as a teacher, tutor, sitter, and respite provider. My passion is to help kids grow and learn and have fun while doing it! I also provide light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, and swimming supervision to help lighten the load for busy parents. My experience and training allow me to provide a safe and engaging care with a side of silliness and fun.
