Experience: 20 yrs
I'm a certified early childhood educator with over 20 years of experience supporting children ages 2-10 in both classrooms and family homes. I hold a graduate degree in Early Childhood and Community Education and a Texas teaching certification. Families often hire me when they're looking for more than supervision. I create engaging, play-based experiences that support early literacy, curiosity, confidence, and social-emotional growth. Whether we're reading stories, doing puzzles, exploring outside, or playing imaginative games, I enjoy helping children learn through everyday moments. Parents describe me as calm, playful and thoughtful. I support routines, encourage independence, and set kind, consistent boundaries. I'm CPR & First Aid trained and communicate closely with parents so we feel like a team. My rates reflect my professional training and experience providing intentional, developmentally informed care. I'd love to connect and learn more about how I can support your family.
Kimberly brings genuine heart and soul to her time with children. She understands that they want to have fun, but that they also want to be heard and to grow, and even to learn boundaries. Years of working in schools, of worldly travels, as well as of her own lived experiences, inform Kimberly’s thoughtful and creative approaches. I not only trust Kimberly but highly recommend her!
