Hello, My name is Valerie, being a parent for over a decade I have learned that I genuinely enjoy teaching and caring for children. For the past 4 years I have gained experience working in childcare settings with toddler, preschool and school aged children, as well as spending 4 months in a full kindergarten classroom as a teacher's assistant. I have studied Early Childhood Education at Humber College. I believe learning through play fosters a life long joy of learning and will work with your child's interests to build upon their learning in fun purposeful and creative ways. I endeavor to build a secure and trusting relationship with your family. I have my CPR and first aid as well as Police Vulnerable check. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions.
