About Opal

Experience: 20 yrs

Fostering a child's natural curiosity and watching them grow is my greatest professional passion. With over 20 years of experience, I provide a nurturing environment where children feel empowered to be innovative and creative. My background includes Early Childhood Education and coursework in Early Child Development, ensuring I offer informed, high-quality care for up to five children. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications. I am patient, calm, and prioritize clear communication through your preferred method, whether that is daily written reports or verbal updates at pickup. I am comfortable with pets and happy to assist with meal preparation or travel. I enjoy engaging children with educational games, puzzles, and interactive technology. I always follow your lead regarding household rules to ensure consistency. I look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life.
