I currently work as a Childcare Teacher’s Aide at Prince George’s Employees Child Care Center(Going on two years starting July) where I help care for children in a structured classroom setting. In this role, I assist with daily routines such as meals, outdoor play, learning activities, and transitions, while also supporting children’s emotional, social, and behavioral development. I observe and assess students, use positive reinforcement and redirection, and help maintain a safe, organized, and engaging environment. I also completed a 3 year Child Development Program in high school, which gave me a strong foundation in how children grow, learn, and communicate. This training, combined with my hands-on daycare experience, allows me to understand children’s needs and respond with patience, kindness, and consistency. Additionally, I have completed several professional childcare and child development training courses that have strengthened my ability to support children in a safe, inclusive, and developmentally appropriate environment. Read more My certifications include Autism Awareness, Child Abuse: Physical Abuse Awareness, Child Care Aide Orientation, Including All Children and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Relating with Parents, Early Childhood Program Accreditation, Obesity and Nutrition, Playing Outdoors, and Surviving Toddlerhood.
