Carissa $25 per hour for 1 child

I have Master's degree in young child education with a Montessori focus, I am certified to work with children 0 to 6 years old and I am most comfortable to work with children newborn to 6 years old, but I have experience with children up to 10 years old. I am an AMI trained Montessori guide and have greatly enjoyed my time with children in the classroom. I went back to school during the pandemic and became a speech therapist. I now specialize in early intervention services. I have worked with children ages 12 mo to 6 years old in a school setting over the last ten years but am now focusing on home care because of COVID risks in schools. I believe in interacting with children as unique individuals, showing them full respect and helping them develop personal independence, social skills, and a true sense of self confidence.
