Hi there! I have two Masters degrees in the liberal arts, and working with young people is one of my passions! I've taught full-time in schools (DSST Public Schools, Vanguard Classical School), worked for non-profit organizations providing after-school educational and socio-emotional programming (I Have a Dream Foundation, citizen Schools), and provided in-home respite services as a behavior interventionist (BRIA)! I'm currently considering returning back to school again among other ventures, and am looking for a family to provide consistent (COVID safe) child-care. I will be sure to find fun (and educational) activities to do with your kids, while keeping them safe. Parent Testimonial (contact info upon request): "I met Tawnie while looking for a caregiver for my young autistic son. I liked her immediately! She came across as warm, genuine, and had a great attitude... I believe she is fair, honest, and has great morals...Never shy, Tawnie demonstrated an immense Read more fervor by jumping in and finding fun things for our son to do. Even though her main assignment was to work with our son, she always found ways to include our daughter in the activities and made everything fun, while teaching turn-taking, sharing and opening up social communication between family members..." Thank you!
