My involvement in childcare began at a young age, originating in Chicago before joining a large family in Maple Plain, Minnesota, renowned for welcoming numerous foster children. From the moment I could carry them, I began caring for infants. Throughout the years, I've gained diverse childcare experience, including babysitting, nannying, camp counseling, teaching, and serving as a PCA. My academic background includes a degree in Musical Theater from Penn State, where I refined my skills and participated in national performances across stage, commercial, voice over, and film realms. Additionally, I'm a professionally trained vegan chef and recently obtained certification as a Holistic Nutritionist. Personally, I'm committed to a zero-waste lifestyle. As an avid traveler who thrives in the great outdoors and possesses a deep-seated artistic inclination, I offer a plethora of activities, ranging from culinary instruction and outdoor adventures to artistic pursuits and academic assistance. Regardless of the age group, Read more I possess the requisite skill set to cater to diverse needs. I eagerly await the opportunity to discuss further with you.
