I first started babysitting when I was a young teenager and quickly found that I loved working with children-- getting to play with them, engage their imaginations, and help them learn. I have cared for children from age newborn to 12 years old in a variety of settings including in-home and day care services. I have experience as a literacy and elementary tutor in addition to basic supervision. I have been CPR and First Aid trained and have worked with children with a variety of special needs both on a one-on-one basis and in groups. I love having the chance to get to know children as individuals and figuring out what they are good at and love to do. I also love exploring, and I implement many creative, imaginative, scientific, and practical projects into my daily routines. If requested, I enjoy sharing my knowledge of playing music and speaking French Read more with the children. I love spending time outside and going on adventures.
