About Derek

Experience: 15 yrs

As a Certified Teacher with over 15 years of experience, I'm passionate about nurturing young minds and creating a safe, stimulating environment for children to thrive. My journey into childcare began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered my knack for connecting with children and supporting their growth. Patient, calm, and approachable, I prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring they're informed about their child's day and any concerns that arise. I believe in fostering a collaborative relationship with families, respecting their parenting styles and preferences. When it comes to enforcing household rules, I maintain a firm but gentle approach, ensuring a structured and consistent environment for the children in my care. My approach to playtime is diverse, ranging from energetic outdoor sports and physical games to engaging technology-based games and apps. I'm always seeking new ways to make learning fun and interactive.
