A little about me personally: I was born and raised in Seattle and recently graduated from the University of Washington with my Master's in Teaching English as a Second Language. Additionally, I hold a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Teaching English as a Second Language and an endorsement in Literacy. My passion is empowering the next generation to succeed at their highest potential and it is my philosophy that everyone can learn so much from working with children. As far as experience, I've worked at a bilingual, literacy-focused daycare working primarily with infants and toddlers occasionally. I have been babysitting consistently for over a decade, and have taken the Red Cross babysitting, CPR and emergency preparedness trainings to ensure I can provide the best possible care to my clients and their children and react appropriately in a variety of situations.
