Meet Lena

  • Comfortable with pets

I have been working in early childhood education professionally since 2012. I have worked for private families, daycares, public schools, as well as Montessori schools. I have experience working with children ages 15mo-11yrs old. Most recently, I have worked for a public school after school program with the K-3rd group, where I was responsible for homework help, monthly activities such as crafts, athletic activities and group games, and monitoring outdoor play. I have two years of Montessori toddler classroom experience, so I would be happy to help you create a Montessori environment at home. I worked in Tokyo, Japan teaching English to adults and children for two years, and also majored in Japanese while I was in college. I can speak and understand day to day conversational Japanese, and would be happy to provide beginner lessons or communicate with your children in Japanese if desired. Along with my childcare experience, Read more I have also worked in the veterinary field and am comfortable with pets of all shapes and sizes. I have two cats of my own currently, but have in the past cared for dogs and other small exotic pets. My hobbies include arts and crafts, cooking, and exploring the outdoors! I also really enjoy museums, zoos, parks and other public spaces and would be happy to take your children on trips to any of them. Thanks for reading!
