Hi, I’m originally from New York but I’ve lived in the Seattle area for over 24 years. I have a background in early childhood education and have worked previously as a preschool teacher with children ages 2.5-7 years old. I'm passionate about many different educational philosophies and taught primarily in a Montessori inspired classroom. I have a love of reading especially children's literature and I have experience working in a library specifically in the children's section. In addition to my teaching experiences I've worked for many years at Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center in Duvall, WA. I worked as a volunteer in lessons with children. During the pandemic I spent a year in New York where I set up a classroom for my nieces (3,5,) and nephew (7) who were learning from home. I'm excited to work with children again. I think early childhood is a magical time where foundations Read more can be built that last a lifetime. I'm available for date night care and I'm also open to other care opportunities. I look forward to meeting you! *I’m also an auntie to 15 nieces and nephews!
