Hello, viewer! Hello! As 25-year-old Virginian native and shameless book nerd with genuine passion for childcare, I hope you'll find me the perfect person to care for your kids. I'm a children's book professional by day, and my childcare experience is extensive -- it includes time working with young children with serious illnesses and intellectual disabilities. Yet my passion and dedication to childcare may be best explained with my time as a Court Appointed Special Advocates volunteer. I worked very closely with two children who had been placed in foster care because of child abuse and neglect charges. As I got to know the children, I fell in love with them. I fought for them they now live together in a safe, permanent home. Even since I moved to new NY to work in children's books, we are constantly in contact, and their bookshelves are stuffed to the gills! I Read more also have experience as a successful tutor. As a voracious reader, freelance editor, and certified grammar geek, I know what makes an A+ worthy essay at any grade level!
