I’m a certified teacher with a Master’s degree and five years of classroom experience teaching grades 3–8, along with substitute teaching across grade levels. I bring my educational background into childcare through calm, nurturing care that balances structure, play, learning, creativity, and plenty of room for children to be themselves. I’m a mom to a 5-year-old son starting kindergarten this fall and a 2-year-old daughter. For weekday daytime care, my daughter would accompany me. I offer childcare, academic support, and enrichment, including reading intervention, writing support, homework help, and hands-on learning tailored to each child’s interests and learning style. I love reading, outdoor play, music, crafts, imaginative play, nature exploration, and discovering new things alongside children. I’m dependable, have reliable transportation, am comfortable with light childcare-related housekeeping, and references are available upon request.
