Meet Darby

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hello! My name is Darby! I began working with children about 6-7 years ago. I am a pre-med major with a minor in psychology so I am very concerned with the physical and mental/emotional safety of the children I work with. I prefer to have my kids play and explore in the outdoors because I feel that it is a more enriching experience, but of course I will adapt to whatever the parents and child feel comfortable with. I have experience dealing with children with anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and other learning disabilities so I am equipped with tools to handle outbursts or inflamed moments. Additionally, I have worked with infants as young as a few weeks old so I know the ins and outs of dealing with a newborn. I am very patient and able to multitask effectively. I pride myself in the nurturing and uplifting environment I create with Read more the kids I work with. I ensure that they feel supported and cared for. It is important that they are comfortable and can trust me with any worry or accomplishment they share. I look forward to meeting you and your family! *I am entering my junior year of college so in the fall I will have classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 12:30-1:45 pm, and Tuesday/Thursday from 10:00-10:50 am*
