I would love to provide excellent, focused care for your child, in my home or yours! I am a teacher, with a Master's Degree in Education, and have been doing childcare in my home alongside my now 7 year old girl. Here is a little about my values and philosophy relating to children: I believe in spending time with kids as much as possible, helping them learn and grow through interaction. I use simple, creativity-sparking toys like blocks, puzzles, music, figurines, books and whatever else my baby finds interesting and is in her environment! I try not to limit her curiosity and discovery. I believe in lots of outdoor time and keep screens to a zero for little ones and am mindful of intake as they grow! In short, I believe that in this busy world, children should be given as calm and naturally-stimulating an environment as possible. I believe Read more this fosters language, feelings of security, focus, persistence, self-esteem, and appreciation for the natural world and people. I also appreciate and enjoy some "higher tech" activities, and think they can be fun, it's just that I believe in curbing over-stimulation and reliance on "gadgets." My experience as a teacher gives me extra patience, perspective, creativity, and the ability to help children through challenges. I can provide a safe, loving and nurturing care. If this speaks to you, please reach out! Thank you for giving me your time!
