Aileen $30 per hour for 1 child

Heyy! My name is Aileen. I’m an experienced educator with 18 years of working with children, including 13 years as a paraprofessional with the Department of Education supporting students in special education. I also hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and have experience working with children of different learning styles, personalities, and needs. In addition to my school-day experience, I worked for 15 years in an afterschool program as a group leader during the school year and as a summer camp coordinator. In these roles, I planned activities, supported homework time, supervised groups of children, and helped create a safe and positive environment where kids could learn, grow, and have fun. I make it a priority that children feel heard, understood, and cared for while maintaining clear routines and safety at all times. I’m happy to answer any questions and would love the opportunity to support your family.
