About Natalie

For over 10 years, my family has cared for the children of over 30 families in the foster system. 5 of those years I was old enough to help care for and support kiddos welcomed into our home. We housed anywhere from one to five kids at once, ranging from 8 months to 15 years old. I have found so much joy in being able to provide a welcoming space, manage new routines and schedules, and be able to provide for them in every way that I can. Additionally, I have been a TA for Pre-K students in Sunday school! I would lead them through a variety of crafts and activities to support their learning and environmental needs. I built strong bonds with my students in each of my classes, getting the chance to learn about all child care from children of various backgrounds, preferences, and learning styles.
