About Ardell

I have 10 years experience as a babysitter, caretaker, and nanny. I am a morning and after-school care provider for elementary and middle aged children. We enjoy making crafts, building forts, making obstacle courses, playing outside, reading, playing board games, and baking. I think taking the time to slow down and learn with our youth is so important in our increasingly fast-paced, rapidly changing society. I also take pride in being my grandmother's caregiver, which has helped me grow to become more patient and flexible. Nurturing and caring for others is second nature to me. I understand the immense impact we have on our youth; we all have a role in teaching, raising, and caring for the next generation of people. It is important to me to foster critical thinking and to stimulate curiosity in an open environment where children can grow in their place. I value communication and collaboration with parents. I can be flexible and easily adapted to spontaneous events and challenges.
