Hey! My name is Shannon and I am currently finishing up my degree in early childhood education with dual certification in special ed. I have such a strong passion for working with children which is what motivated me to go to college for it. I'm currently looking for some additional work on the weekends and I would love to assist and provide further help for your family! I believe that hands-on activities are critical for child development and are some of the most important experiences for young children. Keeping children actively engaged and also allowing them to plan have fun is top priority of mine. I take a constant effort to get on the child's level and I strongly believe that positive relationships with the family and the child are extremely important! I am very flexible and I always try to meet the needs of the families I care for!
