My diverse experiences in childcare range from serving as a youth teacher at my church, assisting daycare teachers, leading at VBS, to organizing dance clinics for children. I also have worked as newborn care specialist , and a well known Nanny agency . Interesting fact about me I have two deaf brothers and growing up with them has equipped me with proficiency in American Sign Language (ASL). My background has provided me with valuable skills in fostering a safe, loving environment and honing my abilities in communication, patience, and attention to detail. My commitment to nurturing children's development stems from a deep belief that these formative years are crucial, requiring utmost care and attention. If given the opportunity to work with your family, I assure you of my dedication to delivering the highest standard of care. I understand the significance of these foundational years and am committed to contributing positively Read more to each child's growth, ensuring they cultivate new skills and discover meaningful hobbies. Children are our future, and I cherish every moment spent fostering their development.
