Hi! I am a part-time college student and currently work full-time at a high school in the special education department on the inclusion side of things. I support students in general education classrooms by adapting my approach to different learning styles and needs, helping them stay engaged, and supporting focus, behavior, and academic success. This has helped me build strong patience, flexibility, and a natural ability to connect with kids where they are. I’ve also been a lead teacher in a 1–2-year-old classroom, a nanny for two families, and have years of babysitting experience. I’m very comfortable working with children from infancy through high school and familiar with developmental milestones, routines, and transitions at every stage. I really enjoy creating a warm, fun, and safe environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. I love hands-on activities like outdoor play, crafts, reading, and imaginative games over screen time. I’m caring, reliable, Read more and attentive, and I focus on supporting not just children’s physical needs but also their emotional well-being, helping them feel understood, secure, and supported while giving parents peace of mind. I have full-time availability during the summer and weekend availability during the school year.
