~Not currently looking for employment~ I graduated from the U of O with a B. A. in Education and a minor in Special Ed. There, I also obtained my Master's in Elementary Teaching. After receiving my teaching license, I worked as a substitute teacher at Moss Street Children's Center on campus, filling in for lead teachers in various classrooms for children from infants to 5 years old. My responsibilities included assisting with daily routines, maintaining a safe environment, and providing care and guidance to the children. My education and experience have shaped my approach to working with children, and I am particularly drawn to the Montessori and Waldorf methods, emphasizing the child's natural abilities and learning through play. For the last 6 months, I have been caring for an infant who was 6 months old when I began. Additionally, I have been involved in a nanny share arrangement with a neighbor's child a few times a week.

Claire is easily the most incredible caregiver we've worked with. She is attentive to our daughter's needs, warm and engaging and brings a calming presence and energy to her work. Our daughter lights up when Claire is around. Claire is communicative, curious and works closely with us to ensure our daughter gets fantastic care when we're at work. Any family would be immensely lucky to bring Claire on as a caregiver. Truly the best of the best!
