Hello! My name is Liv! I've recently moved to Chicago from Boston, MA and I'm doing my best to appreciate the city while also staying safe in the pandemic! I have been working with kids since high school, from tutoring to swim instructing to teaching at daycares. I grew up around children. My mother had her own home daycare for my little cousins and children of family friends, and this was my first exposure to childcare. When I started to look for jobs in high school it just made sense to look for jobs with children. Previously working as a tutor has allowed me to understand that all children are different and have unique needs. Understanding this has enabled me to connect with children from a variety of backgrounds on a deep level. I was able to improve on and refine this skill while working as a head lifeguard and Read more youth swim instructor. Over the course of the three years I was also able to learn to keep children engaged in the lesson, to keep them entertained while still ensuring that they were learning. I am currently working as an assistant preschool teacher at a private daycare facility in the city. I work under the guidance of a lead teacher to help provide a safe, organized and healthy classroom setting for students. I contribute to lesson plans, prepare materials for upcoming activities, and keep an open communication between care giver and teacher.
