Hi, I'm Wren! I have over six years of professional childcare experience.I began my career working in play therapy for children on the spectrum, then spent two years working as a lead teacher in a Montessori preschool. In between those positions I've long-term nannied for three families with children ages two to twelve. I've held both part-time (drop-off, pickup, and afters-school) positions and full-time childcare assignments. I am comfortable with minor household duties, meal preparation, transportation, tutoring and anything else that comes up in your lives! Safety is of the utmost importance to me, followed closely by fun! Fostering creativity and early independence is at the core of my childcare philosophy.I'm currently looking for a part-time position up to 25 hours. I'd love to chat with you about your care needs!
