My name is Caitlin and I am a fully qualified early childhood educator with eight years of professional experience. I love working with young children and guiding them through their development, and enjoy engaging in fun activities with them such as art projects, pretend play and reading books. Building trusting relationships with children is something I take pride in, and I am known for my calm and nurturing personality. I am currently a lead preschool teacher, working with children ages 3-5, and have also been lead teacher for a two year-old class. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Child-Adolescent Development, along with a minor degree in Special Education. Other certifications I have include child and adult CPR and first aid.

Hello! My name is Annika - I’m offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I’ve been working with children for nearly seven years now, and have experience tutoring all age levels. I grew up on a farm, so I’m very comfortable taking care of furry (or scaly) friends too! I’d be happy to help around the house - cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, and running errands.
