About Layne

*SUMMER availability 6/22-8/12. My personality is warm, equable and grounded. I like working with kids because of their unfiltered authenticity and inquisitive nature. I've like to celebrate a child's "small wins" and unique voice. I'm looking for a job that brings peace of mind and support to both parties. My work ethic is defined by my commitment to providing consistent, high quality care and service. I appreciate transparency, open communication, and fairness. I started working with kids when I was a young teen. Since then I have been a sitter, nanny, dance teacher and Family Assistant. Currently a para educator. In my spare time, I like to walk in nature, create art and spend time with family and friends. One thing you should know about me is I am a dedicated caregiver who specializes in bringing a sense of steady, grounded calm to high energy environments. My skills include attuned listening, practicing observant compassion and nurturing, and responsive caregiving.
