Hi! I am a mature, responsible, smart, and creative woman who loves helping children grow emotionally, academically, and individually! I have 10+ years of working with children and families of all ages. My last family was with a newborn and toddler (they moved). I am comfortable with feedings, changing diapers, nap time schedules, and reading for the little ones. For toddlers and up, I enjoy cooking and/or meal prep, helping with homework, playing outside, creating crafts, and driving them to/from places. I do have my own personal and reliable vehicle. I am CPR certified and I have dozens of early childhood education certificates through Jefferson County Schools. Some of my other experience includes teacher assistant for K-4 and working with and after-school program (K-8). Finally, I also hold Master's degrees in English and Linguistics. If this sounds good to you, please reach out! I am happy to chat beforehand as Read more we are both looking for a good fit :)
