A career educator and childcare provider, I love kids, playing, creating, discovering and learning. My passions include books, animals, nature, and the environment, and I enjoy reading, being physically active, artfully creative and spending time outside. I develop a strong rapport and personal relationships with the families I work with and they have told me they appreciate my initiative, flexibility and energetic, outgoing personality.

As an educator and childcare provider, I have over 10 years of experience facilitating learning within diverse educational environments in Canada and abroad. This experience has provided me with opportunities to teach and care for infants, toddlers and primary age children in both home and classroom settings. In addition, I have worked with and have a special connection with children with ASD and special needs. I enjoy creative activities and play-based learning that engages kids and promotes learning through discovery. I keep children busy through outdoor activities, sports, arts and crafts, and imaginative play. In addition, as a certified Ontario teacher, I will make sure that homework (if applicable) is completed and can provide assistance when children are challenged. I am trained in CPR, first aid and lifesaving and am a strong swimmer, and love animals, nature and being outside year round.
