I am an experienced childcare professional with a passion for working with children of all ages. I bring 16 years of experience in education and childcare, including two years as a daycare provider for infants and preschool children, where I developed strong communication skills and the ability to create a nurturing and structured environment. Additionally, I have spent three years as a special education life skills teacher, working closely with children with diverse learning needs, where I honed my ability to tailor activities and support to individual children’s abilities. For the past 11 years, I have worked as a general education teacher, guiding students through academic and social development. My teaching experience has equipped me with excellent organizational skills, patience, and a deep understanding of child development, which I apply in every caregiving role. I am excited to bring my wealth of knowledge and my compassionate, patient, and caring approach Read more to a nanny position, where I can provide personalized care and help foster growth and learning in a safe, loving environment.
