I am an experienced and dedicated childcare professional with over seven years of hands-on experience working with children in diverse settings. My career is fueled by a profound passion for nurturing and assisting children. My academic background includes a Bachelor of Science in Family and Human Services, and I am currently in my second year of pursuing a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, with a specialization in family and marriage counseling. This educational foundation equips me with a comprehensive understanding of child development and family dynamics. I am deeply committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of the children under my care, as evidenced by a portfolio of certifications. These include first aid, basic life support for adults, children, and infants, as well as CPR and AED. I am also a Registered Behavior Technician, enabling me to address specific behavioral needs in a professional and effective manner. Read more I am fully licensed through the Department of Early Learning and Care, demonstrating my strict adherence to state regulations and safety standards. My commitment to a secure environment is further highlighted by my ongoing maintenance of up-to-date fingerprinting. I have held various roles, each focused on the well-being and development of children over the last seven years: Teacher's Assistant, Nanny, Direct Support Professional, Personal Support Worker and a Behavioral Technician. While I have experience working within Montessori and an understanding of gentle parenting principles, I adapt my approach to the unique needs and preferences of each child and their families. This adaptability ensures that I provide the most suitable care and guidance for the children I work with. What deeply motivates me as a caregiver is the opportunity to have a positive and lasting impact on the lives of children and their families. Witnessing children grow and develop under my guidance is profoundly rewarding. My academic background in family and human services, along with my ongoing studies in clinical mental health counseling, equips me with both the knowledge and skills to provide comprehensive care and emotional support to the children I work with.
