About Marie-therese

I'd describe my personality as friendly, outgoing, and patient. I started working with kids at the age of 14 years old at the Columbus Metropolitan library, where I interned. I participated in the early age reading development of toddlers during programs. I assisted in a kindergarten based classroom of 30 to 50 students. I also worked with many students one on one to better assist them on any activities and homework. My skills include understanding children development; I am able to provide the best experience for children at the different stages of their development. This requires me to be patient and calm so that I can respond to changing moods and behaviors. I also find myself to be nurturing; I am able to connect with children building a safe and loving relationship which offers a stable environment for them. I am sensitive to children individual needs, and tailor my caregiving style to mesh with their personality to further support the growth of the child.
