Find experienced child care providers in West Lafayette, IN

Hi! My name is Chloe, I am going to be a sophomore at Purdue University and I'm studying Elementary Education. I have been babysitting, working with children in classrooms, and leading children Sunday school since I was in 8th grade. I absolutely love helping out with kids because I love being able to watch them thrive and grow. I have had multiple opportunities throughout the years to babysit for varying aged children in my community, and I have work in classrooms ages K-5! I also worked in a daycare every morning of my senior year, taking care of infants and toddlers! I absolutely love this because children this young are constantly changing and they are so fun. As for some of my skills, I am very flexible and patient. I find it super important to cater to children's needs and do whatever is best for their specific needs. Since I have worked with multiple different ages of children, I definitely understand the significance of caring for children and making sure they feel welcome and comfortable!

I'm passionate about meeting kids where they are-physically, emotionally, and developmentally. Whether it's crouching down to their level or adjusting my approach to match their needs, I believe in communicating effectively and creating a positive connection. I've had the privilege of working with a wide range of ages and abilities, both as a YMCA summer camp counselor with large groups and through personal referrals, offering individualized care and supervision. I am especially passionate about nature-based play and enjoy helping kids explore and learn through outdoor activities. As a graduate student in Landscape Architecture with a B. S. in Brain & Behavioral Sciences, I bring a unique perspective to understanding how environments impact children's development. I strive to create nurturing, fun, and safe experiences that allow each child to grow and thrive in a supportive setting.
