Hello! My name is Helena. I have babysitting experience with children ranging from newborns to age 10. As a graduate student in general and special education, I understand the balance between academic and tactile learning. I love to engage children in outdoor activities, such as the parks, play dates, or daily walks, as well as educational activities such as the library or museums. I am currently an Assistant Teacher in a special needs school. Working with children is not just a job to me, it's something I absolutely love to do and my dedication and commitment to the work adds to the happiness and learning the children experience.
