I have had many opportunities to work with and teach children throughout my life. I am currently working in elementary special education, starting my 10th year this year! Along with my experience working in education, I have worked as a tutor, full-time nanny, part-time nanny, before and after school babysitter, and as an au pair in Spain! (I’m not fluent, but I do speak some Spanish!) I have participated in many trainings through my school district for special needs care (including occupational and physical therapy trainings, autism-specific care, and alternative & augmentative communication) as well as social/emotional learning, equity, and culturally responsive teaching. I have also completed training and have certificates in the following: Celebrating Milestones and Sharing Concerns (CDC); Safe Sleep Ambassador, Child Welfare, Home Visitors (Cribs for Kids); Water Safety for Parents and Caregivers (Red Cross); Carseat Basics, Children in Hot Cars (National Safety Council) My top priority Read more is to foster a positive, creative, and open environment where kids feel heard, cared for, and ready to have fun! I’ve been working with kids my whole adult life and I’m always learning and growing with them. I can’t wait to bring some fun ideas to your kids and learn all about their favorite things!
