I have been caring for children since I was a teenager. I have 4 years experience as an elementary and special education teacher, as well as 1 year experience as a preschool teacher. I have worked with children of various ages including newborns through 5th grade. Before becoming a teacher, I worked as a lifeguard for 7 summers and continue to hold my CPR certification. I am very active and find opportunities for learning in all activities with children. I am comfortable with pets, and am also an excellent chef, and am familiar with many recipes for special dietary needs (gluten free, paleo, ect.). I am happy to do light housekeeping, but my main priority will always be to meet your child's needs in all aspects of their day.
