From the start of my high school career and into my years as a college student, I have tutored and/or provided care for babies, toddlers, and school age to promote safe, fun learning experiences. I have lived in the Ocean Lakes area of Virginia Beach, VA my entire life. Throughout my time assistant teaching, providing childcare, volunteering, and tutoring, I have helped to engage the children in my care with many creative and stimulating activities. I have a passion for teaching and a goal to teach elementary students in the future. My dreams include being an inspiration for children and others. I recently graduated from James Madison University with an Interdisciplinary Liberal Studies degree with a minor in Elementary Education. I have already taken on public school teaching jobs in Harrisonburg and Virginia Beach, Virginia. I am patient, professional, and will treat your children with love and respect. I love Read more to swim, be outdoors, and I absolutely love animals, especially any type of dog. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified and I have learned safety procedures my entire life from my father who has been a Virginia Firefighter his entire life. I am looking to find families to work for to do what I love most, which is caring for children in a safe, fun-loving environment.
