Hi I’m Riley and I’m an engineering student at the University of Cincinnati. I am currently a dance teacher and am CPR/ first aid certified through the Red Cross. Through my dance teaching job (ages 2.5-12) I regularly receive training on behavior management and childhood development. A little about myself, I grew up dancing as a ballerina and I also danced competitively. I have been assisting dance classes of all ages for over a decade and love to help kids learn! My favorite part is that got it moment when an idea or concept finally clicks and the joy from the child is so contagious! I have experience babysitting throughout high school for family and friends for babies, toddlers, and school age children.
