Meet Sharon

I have 5 years' experience in childcare, as both a nanny and as a childcare center teacher. I am cpr and first aid certified and can provide references. I especially enjoy caring for infants, and use an approach guided by the RIE method of infant care. I believe all babies deserve respectful, gentle care, and work with parents as we observe baby's changing needs to try to best meet the needs of all. I also have a music education background, with a special interest in early childhood music. I enjoy designing musical experiences based on Edwin Gordon's Music Learning Theory (this is what Music Together bases their curriculum on). Given proper experiences, young children can learn to understand music as a "language" as they learn to speak their native language. I love helping facilitate this growth. A few things I like to let families know from the start: I am Read more working on my comfort level with working in homes with dogs (not allergic, just a little nervous around them) so if you have a dog I'd be happy to do a meet and greet. I'm totally comfortable with cats. I don't drive children (have a clean driving record and reliable transportation, I just prefer not to take on that responsibility).
