Hello! My name is Vaile. I am a sophomore at Miami University studying Primary Education with Minors in Finance and Event Planning. I hope to become a 2nd grade teacher when I graduate. I am on the Water Polo team, and am also in a Sorority.  When I am not involved with these extracurriculars, I enjoy scrapbooking and making crafts.   Prior to college, I played soccer and was on a swim team. I provided swim lessons for 2-15 year-olds, and also served as a lifeguard. I am in the process of re-certifying in CPR and First Aid.   I have a lot of fun ideas for craft projects as well as other at-home activities, depending on your children’s interests. I would also love to help your little ones learn how to swim! My junior and senior year of high school I had an internship with my local elementary where I worked with many diverse learners. I have my teaching assistant certification (ParaPro) from this program. I have also spent many years volunteering at my church with toddlers. I am looking forward to continuing to expand my experience with children of all ages as this is my passion. Any additional time I spend with children now will help me become a better teacher and mother one day.

Vaile was excellent! She connected with us days prior to see what our son liked and to get to know us. She arrived on time and was amazing with our son. He had a great time and spoke highly of Vaile the next day

I have always been a caring and generous person. I love helping others, caring for people, hosting, and nurturing. I’m known for my loyalty and habit of giving more than I receive. I am a school psychologist for my full-time job. I also work for Rover, and I have a lot of experience caring for cats, dogs, fish, and rodents as well.
