Hi there!
My name is Lana, and I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Middle Grades Education with a focus on science. I’ve always loved working with children, and I have experience caring for kids from 3 months old up through middle schoolers. I worked in a daycare setting where I gained hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, and I’ve also taught and led activities for older kids through camps and school programs.
Services I Offer:
Child care, tutoring, homework help, meal prep, light cleaning, and pet care if needed.
Child Care Experience:
I’ve worked with infants as young as 3 months, helping with bottle feedings, diaper changes, nap schedules, and early developmental play. For toddlers and older children, I love planning engaging activities like arts and crafts, story time, outdoor games, and hands-on learning projects. My background in education helps me connect play with learning in fun ways that keep kids curious and happy.
Special Skills:
Tutoring (especially science and reading), classroom management, and creating enriching activities for all ages. I’m also skilled in meal prep and can adapt to any child’s routine or needs.
Certifications/Training:
I’m trained in child development and classroom management through my education program, and I’ve completed coursework in inclusive and special education practices. I also maintain current CPR and First Aid certifications.
Pet Care:
I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of pets — I have a beagle, 2 cats, and a bearded dragon myself! I’m used to animals that shed, and I can handle feeding, walking, and playtime with no problem.
