About Teresa

I bring 20+ years of childcare experience, supporting children from infancy through pre-teen years for families, friends, and neighbors. With a graduate background in human behavior, I take a thoughtful, developmentally informed approach to care. My style is calm, structured, and inspired by Montessori principles--encouraging independence, curiosity, and cognitive growth through engaging, age-appropriate activities. I create environments where children feel secure, capable, and supported. I am also passionate about helping children develop healthy, age-appropriate relationships with technology, offering gentle guidance around digital awareness when appropriate. Families value my professionalism, discretion, and reliability. I am comfortable caring for up to three children and can assist with meal prep, light household support, and maintaining consistent routines. CPR and First Aid certified. I prioritize clear communication and being a steady, trusted presence in your home.
