Throughout my time working in childcare I would play physical games with the children along with card or board games. Additionally, I would organize crafts for me and the kids to do and sometimes make them seasonal. For example me and the kids would make snowflakes during the winter time. During the summer my campers and I would explore nature a lot. We would go to the creek and learn about the different environments and creatures living in the creek along with outdoor games we would play.

I am currently a senior at Upper Dublin High School and plan to major in Early Childhood Education because I am passionate about working with children and creating a positive learning environment. I have experience working with kids through summer camps, babysitting, and childcare settings, where I learned how to supervise children, keep them safe, and help them stay engaged in activities. I have worked as a camp counselor caring for groups of young children and helping with daily routines, participation, and behavior management. I have also completed childcare health and safety training focused on supervision, emergency preparedness, safe environments, and child development. Through these experiences, I have developed strong communication, leadership, patience, and problem-solving skills that help me connect well with both children and families.
I'm a college student studying psychology in the hopes to work with kids in the future. I've worked with kids for the past six years, before graduating highschool I was a nanny for 2 under 2 for almost 2 years. I am passionate about working with kids, love to play games, entertain and help your kids learn while in a fun environment. I'm very flexible with schedules and am willing to cook, clean, and run errands. I have experience with kids of all ages, but do especially well with babies and toddlers. Feel free to reach out to me to set up a call or get references!
