I’ve spent my entire 15 year career working with children in a variety of roles. I hold an Elementary Education degree and have been a teacher, preschool director, and gymnastics coach. I also work full-time at a child-focused nonprofit, where I support kids with diverse backgrounds and needs. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of child development, behavior support, and what it takes to create a nurturing, structured environment. I’m currently looking for part-time weekend work to continue doing what I love outside of my weekday job. What skills and training do you have? Extensive trauma-informed training Experience supporting children with diverse learning needs and behavior interventions Strong foundation in child development from my Elementary Education degree Background in early childhood education and program leadership Creative skills—especially art activities, cooking, and literacy-based play Ability to create calm structure while keeping activities fun and engaging Clear communication with families Read more and a reliable, compassionate presence
