Meet Phaedra

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

For over a year I have been working one on one with a young adult with developmental delays, mentoring and tutoring her through her emotional ups and downs as well as academically. I have been working with children and parents as an educator since 2001 and began focusing on educating youth in 2009. I have worked with ages two years and up in preschools, non-profit after-school tutoring programs (going back to 1997), museum education and community education programs at universities. I have been cleared with a background check in NY as well as Miami, FL to work with children in public schools as well as in public museums. I am happy to get an additional background check or take a CPR certification course should you be interested in hiring me. I thoroughly enjoy working with children of all ages (including teens) and the opportunity to be a positive influence in Read more their lives as well as to learn from them as individuals. I believe each child brings a unique perspective and experience to this world which needs to be respected, nurtured and recognized. English is my first language and I speak some Spanish and some American Sign Language, both of which I am happy to sharpen should these be useful to working with your family. I am dedicated to serving as best I can and would love to learn about the cultures which are important to you and your family.
