Education, especially early childhood, has always been my professional passion. Now, with well over a decades worth of experience - from preschool/public school classrooms, to certified in-home behavioral therapy (ABA services), and innovation summer camps - I have developed an expansive and well-rounded skill set. *Currently located in Mendon, NOT Amherst* I’m also the founder of an educational wellness program, which provides social emotional learning services for the Milford Public School System. I have letters of reference/recommendation from each of these employers, which I am happy to provide upon request (or you can find them on my LinkedIn). Even before graduating high-school, I thrived in local childcare positions. I have been all variations of mother's helper, baby sitter, and nanny since I was thirteen. I have happily worked for more than a dozen families, many of whom I’m still in touch with. I have formally worked in education since I Read more was sixteen. Throughout high-school and college, I was employed by Kids and Company Daycare (Milford, 2012-13), The Learning Experience Preschool (Milford, Summer 2014), and UMass Center for Early Education and Care (Amherst, 2016-18). I have experience with elementary and middle school students from being a lead instructor at Galileo Innovation Camp (Sunnyvale CA, Summer 2018-19) and a camp counselor at YMCA Day Camp (Oak Bluffs, Summer 2015). I am also a long-standing, highly requested substitute teacher for the Milford Public School system (active whenever residing in MA, since 2014, with ages prek-12th grades). Most recently, I have been working with older students (high schoolers and adults) as a senior instructor and Spanish coordinator for Centerpoint Driving Academy.
