Hi, my name is Tessa and I am a 34-year-old resident of Roanoke, VA and 2nd year graduate student pursuing my master's degree in speech-language pathology. I have always enjoyed working with children - I have 15+ years of experience in the field with children ranging in age from 1 to 15. I have been employed as a preschool teacher, a tutor, an in-home nanny, a camp counselor, and a part-time babysitter for many families. When working with kids, I enjoy incorporating outdoor games, art, music, reading, and outings in our daily routines. I take into account children's unique personalities in order to set up activities that will be fun and interesting for them. I have my own car and can help with transportation to and from activities. I am also comfortable with animals and happy to provide pet care if needed. I am dedicated to providing a safe and Read more healthy environment for the children in my care. I am CPR and first-aid certified and can provide a resume, references, and background checks by request. Thank you for your consideration!
