Hi there! My name is Lani and I am offering child care services. I love working with children and helping them to learn and grow. I am active, creative, and enjoy the outdoors. Over the past 5 years, I have worked as a pediatric speech language pathologist. This has given me the opportunity to work with children of a variety of ages and backgrounds. Additional experience with children includes working as a child care assistant at a daycare, helping families and children have a fun and safe time on attractions at Walt Disney World while working as a Disney college program intern, and volunteering as a camp counselor at a camp for children battling life threatening or disabling medical conditions. I am First Aid/CPR certified and have completed the American Red Cross Advanced Child Care Training. I also have a master’s degree in speech language pathology and my schooling included coursework in child development.
I am a passionate childcare provider with over 2 decades of experience nurturing and educating young minds. Child development led me to this rewarding career that leads me to provide reliable support to families. My strengths lie in my patience, creativity and friendly nature to easily connect with children. I follow parents' instructions and respect their parenting style. My English is basic. I speak Spanish.
