I love children and children love to be around me.I have done an internship with a kindergarten teacher at a local elementary school. I also have been a literacy tutor for k-3 students and can help develop and build on reading skills. I currently work in a special needs school and am willing to learn how to care for your special needs kids. I love music, crafts and having fun overall.

Hi there! I am a registered nurse with over 5 years of experience, including a strong background in infant care. Before nursing, I spent more than 3 years as a daycare teacher, primarily working with infants ages 8 weeks to 1 year, and frequently assisting in classrooms with children ages 3-5. I was well known in the daycare center for Craft Days with Ms. Sam. I am calm, attentive, and genuinely love supporting children's growth and routines, while always prioritizing safety, comfort and fun!
