I am currently completing my credential/ M.S. in Moderate-Severe Special Ed. I already have an M.M. in Vocal Performance from CSU Northridge and a BA in Music from Point Loma Nazarene University. While music is a major part of my life, children have always been a passion of mine. I have been involved with childcare for over 10 years with experience as a daycare teacher, babysitter and a nanny. I have also done volunteer work in foreign countries during my summers, including teaching English in Morocco and tutoring in India. These experiences have given me the opportunity to work with a variety of cultures and languages. I have 12 units in Early Childhood Education and I am CPR and First Aid certified for all ages. I also have experience with special needs infants, toddlers and school age children. I love to bring my music background into my childcare. It is amazing how much Read more a toddler lights up with some silly songs! Most importantly, I believe that children need to know they are respected and important. This creates a trusting and peaceful environment where they can grow, explore and play. I am happy to answer any questions you may have and my reference would love to talk to you!
