About me

I graduated with a B.A. in English Writing and a TEFL certification. After graduating, I began teaching English to many levels, and I quickly learned that I enjoy working with children the most. I offer reliable, compassionate care and guidance, and I am able to easily adapt to the child's needs.

I started babysitting when I was 15 years old, and in university, I was a nanny for my professor's 10 month old daughter for 3 years. In addition, I have also worked for many years helping kids learn English face-to-face and online. I also was a preschool teacher for 2 years in the US where I worked in the 4 year classroom and the infant classroom. Regarding toddlers, I learned how to help them develop their creativity, how to write their ABCs, how to express their emotions, etc. Regarding infants, I learned how to adapt to their feeding schedules, change diapers in an effective way, create a space for them to develop fine motor skills, and much more. All of these require patience, and I am fully able to provide a great level of care for each child.

I believe that children should be treated with respect and should be valued more in our society. Children are very comfortable around me due to my kindness and warmth, and I look forward to hearing to meeting you and your child soon. Thank you for your consideration :)

Diabetes

Skills and activities
Singing/playing musical instrument
Dance/physical activity
I am not an expert, but I enjoy singing and dancing with kids to keep them engaged. I played the clarinet for 15+ years, but I do not have a physical instrument at the moment. I believe that music is a great way to help children unwind and develop language skills, motor skills, etc.
