My name is Ashley & I'd love to talk w/you re: childcare needs I currently work as a sub paraeducator, (2019-present) a sub preschool teacher (2024-present) & with 2 families on Care. After graduating from UCD, I obtained my MA in Early Childhood Education (CCLS). I worked in peds for ~ 8 yrs, specifically focusing on I/T & preparing children for surgery. I have 2 children & I bring yrs of professional & personal experience caring for children of all ages & developmental stages. I have extensive experience working w/ neurodivergent children, twins & preemies. I am infant/child/adult CPR, AED & First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, a non-smoker & I love animals. My philosophy in working w/ children is to provide a safe, fun, & + learning environment using various modes of expression. I believe play is the language of children & I support the process over producing a product. I scaffold learning by encouraging children to try for themselves B4 doing it for them. TY
Ashley recently began working with our family on an occasional basis and she's been wonderful. We have a 3 and 6 year old, and our oldest is AuDHD (likely also PDA), so it was important for us to find a caregiver that understood the nuances of raising neurodivergent kiddos while also being kind, respectful, and compassionate, especially around challenging behavior. Ashley is all of these things! She brings her own experience as a parent of an ND kiddo, as well as her academic training and years working with young children. She is thoughtful, communicative, engaged, proactive. She brings fun and educational activities for the kids that they've really enjoyed and she finds ways to be supportive around my child's school work and tidying up around the house. She's also very reliable. I highly recommend!
