About Rachel

I'm a creative and friendly childcare provider with 6 years of summer camp experience and a passion for helping children grow and develop. As a psychology and neuroscience UNCA student (temporarily living in Statesville due to hurricane Helene), I'm actively learning about childhood development and parenting styles and am able to apply that knowledge. I have a lot of experience working with school-aged children, and also have some experience and am comfortable with infants and toddlers. I enjoy coming up with engaging and educational activities for kids of all ages. I have worked with kids and adults with developmental, psychiatric, neurological, and physical disabilities and currently work as a Direct Support Professional with adults with brain injuries. As a childcare provider, I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I have a clean driving record and my own car for transportation. I'm also comfortable with pets of all species and have many years of animal care experience.
