Hi! My name is Lauren Skillinge and I am a teacher certified in PK-4 general education and K-8 special education. This summer, I’m relocating to Santa Barbara from Pittsburgh, PA. Some of my best skills include strong communication, organization and cleanliness, planning and implementing child-centered learning and activities, and building meaningful relationships with children and families. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old, and even went on to nanny for a few summers in college. Through high school, college, and grad school, I gained experience working in preschools and elementary schools teaching both academic and social skills. I understand the influence that adults have on developing children, and strive to be a positive role model who can lead children through navigating their world by setting a strong example.
