Hi! My name is Ava. To tell you a bit about my experience,I began formally babysitting when I was 15, working with ages 6 months up to 12 years old. At 16 I started working in licensed before and afterschool childcare. I have an active CPR/First Aid certification, the state mandated 30 hour Childcare Basics training, fingerprinted and background checked through the state. Some of my favorite activities to do with children is outdoor play, sensory exploration, playing pretend, or reading stories. I also enjoy the day to day things like making their meals, helping do hair or brush teeth, and all the many responsibilities that come with helping your little ones. I have a passion for working with babies, toddlers, and children. I enjoy being able to be part of the process of raising kind, resilient, and independent children. I feel honored to work alongside families, and I enjoy Read more each moment I am able to spend doing what I love.
