I have more than 5 years of childcare experience, including working as an assistant teacher at a daycare and committing long-term to several families I still keep in touch with today. I've had the privilege of traveling with one family on multiple occasions, which speaks to the trust we've built over the years. Parents have told me I'm friendly, reliable, and responsible, with a natural ability to attune well to each child's unique needs.
