I am a dedicated, compassionate, and dependable professional with over 16 years of experience caring for, tutoring, and educating children of all ages. For five years, I worked within the school system as a substitute teacher, paraprofessional, and classroom teacher, where I developed extensive experience in child development, behavior support, academic enrichment, and family engagement. Currently, I work in the nonprofit sector, supporting local children and families throughout our community. My professional and personal experiences have strengthened my passion for helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel supported, encouraged, and empowered. I am seeking childcare opportunities throughout Fairfield County outside of my regular work schedule. I work Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM and am available during early mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether your family needs assistance with morning routines, school drop-offs, transportation to activities, Read more homework help, or occasional date-night care, I would be happy to help. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, have a clean driving record, and drive a new, reliable 2026 vehicle. With my background in education, I enjoy incorporating fun, age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence while ensuring children are safe, engaged, and well cared for. If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and experienced caregiver who can provide both exceptional childcare and educational support, I would be honored to support your family. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to connecting with you and learning how I can best meet your family's needs.
