I also took an early childhood learning class in high school. I absolutely adore children and I care for every one as if they were my own. I have experience as a behavioral technician in a clinical setting working with children on the spectrum from ages 2-5. I have experience with infants, toddlers, elementary age & pre-teens. I also have experience with multiples. I love encouraging children to engage in activities that help them learn/grow but I also love bringing them places to relax and have fun or just simply coloring together and listening to music. I also like cooking and what not so meal prep is always on the table if you need it. I always respect parents boundaries/wishes and I adapt to whatever approach they prefer with anything. Most importantly; I will protect your child with my life, scouts honor!
