I am an artist, jeweler, teacher, and child caretaker. I love to dance, play, sing, imagine. In school I studied human development and child behavior, alongside my art studies. I have 10+ years of experience caring for children in their homes, in an art or ski class, at the farm or park, or wherever our adventures take us. I believe in child-led learning and I do whatever I can to support the child first. I currently work with a family part time so I'm looking for another part time position. My services are offered at $30/hr because of my experience in this field, and my dedication to the lives of children, however, I am open to negotiating for the right fit!
