i’m a grad student at the erikson institute working on my MSW in infant and early childhood mental health. i’ve been working as a preschool teacher for about 5 years now but i’m looking for something more flexible and part-time now that i've started my first social work internship during the school day on tuesdays and thursdays. i’m CPR and food safety certified, and i’ve been working professionally with children (primarily infants, toddlers, and preschoolers) for about 10 years now. my biggest priorities as a caregiver are relationship-building, creativity, and self-esteem—as a future play therapist, i like to incorporate techniques from play therapy into my work. i’m happy to provide a complete resume and references on request!
