I've always had a passion for working with children. Throughout my four years of high school, I volunteered working with preschool aged children, and children of various ages with learning disabilities. I've currently been working as an early childhood education teacher for the past three years and it has been very rewarding being able to help children learn and grow, realizing the positive impact I can inflict on each child I come into contact with, along with the relationships that have come along with it. Aside from having experience as a teacher, I also have 9 years of experience with working as a nanny with ages ranging from infancy to age 8. I believe in supporting the development of your little ones fine motor skills from babyhood, and onward so they can master more fine motor skills in the years ahead, which is why I cater my teaching style to Read more the child's age to begin building those instrumental skills early!
