Hello! Thank you for viewing my profile. My name is Carla and I am 28 years old with over 10 years of experience in the childcare field. I started off teaching kids skate school at my local ice rink and babysitting younger cousins as a teenager. After completing my bachelor’s degree at the University of Illinois, I took a job as assistant director of an afterschool program for kids ages 5-9 who have been through trauma. The program focused on academic support, social-emotional skill building and gardening/outdoor education. I stayed there for several years and found the work incredibly rewarding. Since then, I have worked as a tutor in an elementary and middle school and as a full time nanny to my wonderful friend’s infant. I am currently looking into going back to school for pediatric nursing and have some free time. I am comfortable around pets, preparing meals, doing Read more light housekeeping and offering homework help. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to get to know each other better.
