Hello! My name is Shyanne and I specialize in Early Childhood care. I've been working with children from ages 1-4 for almost four years! I am also currently in school working towards my Bachelors in Psychology and a minor in art at Northeastern IU.I love working with children as they give such a brighter outlook on life and make the day so much more exciting. I have worked as an assistant teacher in a daycare center since 2022 and worked as a lead for almost a year. I believe I have great leadership skills not only for just following/or creating a schedule for children, but for also creating fun activities and a learning experience environment all from home! I am willing to work alongside parents and their personal goals for their kids as I'm determined to help them reach these goals.I am both First-Aid and CPR certified and I have additionally taken Early Childhood Education classes alongside DCFS classes.Im looking forward to be given such a honorable opportunity!
