Hi there, I look forward to taking care of your little one(s) - my goal is to make sure every child is happy and healthy! I have experience in childcare for about 16 years - starting as a neighborhood babysitter when I was 16 years old. I also gained experience when I was a teacher's assistant for a preschool (with 18 two-year-olds in my class), teacher assistant for a middle school, a daycare assistant, a medical assistant in a pediatrics office, and have been a babysitter for multiple families. That being said, I have experience with babies, toddlers, and children of all ages. I like to create activities and a fun, family-style atmosphere, comfort children with separation anxiety, and encourage independence. I also am a proactive problem solver who is attentive, organized, eager to teach children just as much as I am ready to learn from them, and very dedicated Read more to providing quality care to each one, specific to the needs of individual personalities. I am also a big believer in maintaining the child’s lifestyle, positive reinforcement, teachable moments, comforting them, and showing young ones how to solve problems and encouraging them to "use their words" - which gives children an outlet for their emotions in place of tantrums. Having fun, playing games, using arts and crafts, and story-time are just some of the ways I like to keep the children active and engaged. Through my experience, you’re never too old to sing silly songs, make “turkeys” from handprints, color outside the lines, play pretend and make believe, engage in story-time, and build the tallest castle from lego blocks! A little about me: I enjoy being outdoors, cooking, listening to podcasts, pinterest/arts-and-crafts, and I'm a non-smoker. I also have BLS (CPR and AED) certification. Thank you for considering me!
