I am highly skilled in providing basic care for Infants and Toddlers such as changing diappers, feeding and comforting. Moreover, making them happy. I am able to develop the activities and play areas , plan art & craft activities, sing songs , play games, serve snacks, and coordinate with co-workers
efficiently.
Protecting children from any potential hazard is my foremost priority all times.
Furthermore, my love of children and gracious nature provides me with a great ability to communicate effectively with children and adults
from various backgrounds. I have a valid drivers license, First Aid and CPR Certified.
I look forward to meeting with you to see how I could benefit your organization.
Children learn through playing, singing songs and doing art ! I love doing all of these things!
I believe if you love doing something, you will do it well…..And I love working with young children.
