About Nadine

I am a K-5 educator looking for summer opportunities! My availability is more limited during the school year, but I appreciate staying connected with families as much as possible. I am also interested in facilitating multi-family play dates/making use of my group management skills! My top 3 skills include patience, empathy and creative problem solving. I am able to validate feelings, while supporting the development of age-appropriate coping skills. I have tons of craft/activity planning experience, and am happy to come prepared! I like working with kids because it forces me to live in the present moment, and to find joy in simple things. I also love the constant surprises and thinking on my feet! -Currently enrolled in Central Background Registry. -Step 10 on the Oregon Registry (Pathways to Professional Development in childhood care and education).
