I graduated from USC-Columbia in 2009 with a degree in English Language and Literature and a minor in Spanish. Throughout my college career, I worked at an After School Program for elementary students and held positions as both a teacher and program director. I also spent a great deal of time babysitting and working as a part-time nanny for families with children aged newborn to 12. After graduating college, I spent 3 years as a high school English teacher, working in schools in both Los Angeles, CA and Lexington, SC. Throughout my time in the classroom, I became certified in teaching English as a Second Language and in teaching Gifted and Talented students. During my third year in the classroom, I also worked as an ABA Line Therapist and provided for care for 3 elementary-aged children diagnosed with Autism. I have had a great deal of experience providing childcare and Read more academic services to children and students of all ages and background. I have recently been accepted to Harvard Graduate School for fall 2014 where I will be pursuing a Master's in School Leadership. I am hoping to continue to find families for whom I can provide excellent childcare services as I prepare financially for my academic endeavors. Because I currently work for an education non-profit from a home office, my schedule and availability are incredibly flexible. I would love to speak to you further and see if I would be a good fit for your family's needs.
