Hello! My name is Carol. I'm currently working as an educational consultant and I tutor and babysit on the side. I have an extensive history of working with children. In high school I worked part time in a day care center with mostly toddlers, I taught preschool for a year, in Iowa, right out of college, and I have worked with preschool-6th grade students. In St Louis I have worked in a variety of roles such as classroom teacher, dean of students, assistant principal, and principal. In addition, I have gone through an extensive background check for my MO state teaching license, I speak Spanish, I have my own transportation, and I am CPR and First Aid certified. On my free time I enjoy staying active by walking, practicing yoga, watching documentaries, traveling, and spending time with friends and family. I am mostly available during the evenings and weekends.

    Carol is amazing! She babysits for us occasionally and also provided care for my two daughters over the summer of 2018. I always know my children are in wonderful hands and that they're learning something when they're with Carol. She provides enrichment activities, exposes them to new ways of thinking, and helps the kids discover what they love. She is incredibly supportive of the children and their dreams. Carol is an encourager and a mentor, and she sets healthy boundaries for the kids to play, grow, and learn. I cannot recommend Carol enough!
