Hellllo There ☺️🌻My name is Lindsey. I began working in childcare babysitting as a teen then in childcare 17 years ago. I worked @ an amazing pre school in Reno NV called London Bridges. We were very small & family oriented w just 4 class rooms, a 2, 3, & 4 yr old room + an accredited kindergarten class for the 5 yr olds as well as a private swim center next door. I was in the 4yr old room where we mainly focused on getting the children ready to begin reading. Each week we had a theme & a curriculum we had to write that had to include time for motor skills, color + shape identification, letter recognition + sounds, counting + numbers,music,science, arts, and socialization. I loved my class & my School so much. Everyone there was a huge blessing. After working there for a year, I left Read more for a year then went back for another year. After that I went to school & stopped working for a little while. Then I took a position @ a well respected in home daycare but left after just a few months for I felt the school was too harsh on the kids. I prefer to gently redirect rather than discipline or threaten negative consequence. I personally don’t think children under the age of 5 understand discipline. It’s a cruel way to lead considering they are children & don’t know any better yet. From there I went back to school for art history & worked a variety of jobs. Mainly in service, eventually finding my way back to childcare some time around 2016. I took a position at a school called The Child Garden in the 4 year old Room. My best friend had been there for several years & had strong relationships with all of the family’s. The experience was an absolute blast. After this I left child care to pursue a career in arts + history. Specifically working for the Nevada Historical Society while also volunteering at an all ages Art + music space in Reno. We organized art shows, concerts, lectures & workshops for all ages w our biggest audience being kids 12-16 yrs old. We did everything from painting workshops, themed bingo nights, art shows + receptions, to rock n roll shows, mentorships, events at museums.. Pretty much anything & everything we could think of to try & give kids a place to be where they could learn, express themselves & feel heard in a safe + healthy environment. (Away from bars + casinos) I participated in the mentorship program as well as was in the gallery committee where we had to plan a years worth of shows for 2 in house galleries and 6 satellite galleries.
