Hello, My name is Tina. I am currently NOT available for any childcare at this time. Thank you for your interest in my skills and may you find a caregiver who is a perfect match for you and your child(ren). I am a friendly, loving, caring, fair, playful, and firm caregiver who loves children and helping them learn and discover the world around them. I taught on the Eastern shore of Maryland for 13 years at a private school for children with special needs. I have an MS in both special education and early childhood education, as well as a BS in child and adolescent psychology. I am a Nationally Certified EMT, including CPR and first aid.

We had the pleasure of working with Tina for 9 months starting when our daughter was 3 months old. The only reason we stopped employment is that we always planned to have our daughter in a full time daycare at 1 years old. We were lucky to have her under our employment! She has a vast knowledge of working with all levels of children. Tina is a very caring person and treated our daughter as part of her family. One of the things that I absolutely loved, is that she keep a detailed journal of their daily activities. Not only did Tina look after our daughter, she did field trips to the local park and stores. She worked on baby sign language, flash cards, reading, singing, colors, shapes and many other sensory and educational things to help our daughter. Tina also worked on behavioral things that a child natural develops when they grow, such as no biting, or please pick that up, to name a few. She followed instructions well, such as what activities we wanted and what types of food to give. We worked as a team in our physical and mental growth.
