I chose to become Certified in Children's Psych to further my knowledge base for providing exceptional in-home care for kiddos. I have been working with little ones for over 10 years now and in the past year I have expanded my age-range to include working with preteens and teenagers. What sets me apart from the rest is not only my energetic nature and my way of listening to understand, but I have invaluable experience of teaching positive, life lessons along the way. I am skilled at the techniques of engaging educational discussion, role-play practice of applying a new understanding and in-vivo positive reinforcement or redirection to solidify the understanding and application of an empowering life lesson. I am also well versed in the art of assisting children/youth with their home studies. I have ample experience teaching concepts from different angles to find the approach that resonates with them. As well, Read more if an educational issue or struggle keeps presenting itself I understand, and have experience with, asking the right questions and providing unconditional positive regard to identify what is causing issue or consistent struggle for the kiddo.
