I am an enthusiastic teacher-in-training with over 10 years of babysitting and childcare experience. I have cared for children whose ages range from infant to young teenager. I work as an assistant kindergarten teacher in Philadelphia during the school year, and ideally I'm looking for a family to work with long-term during the summer; I also have the potential to continue on as an after school caregiver once September rolls around. I have extensive experience caring for children from diverse backgrounds in a wide range of settings - from babysitting five young children, to leading groups of campers, to assistant teaching and substituting for my kindergarten classroom, to running my own after school arts club for 1st-8th grade. In every context, I seek to create meaningful and enriching connections with the kids that I work with. Families and teachers that I work with often tell me that I bring a Read more bright and engaging energy to their childcare setting; my enthusiasm and my love for children shine through under all conditions. I look forward to talking with you about your childcare needs!
