Before teaching elementary, I worked in a private preschool where the students would have a full day schedule of different activities to engage in. Additionally, I have experience teaching church youth ages 4-12 to lead worship and I have lots of experience with infants and toddlers. I would love to help your family or group with your child care needs.
