About Deanna

I have a lot of experience working with children of all ages and abilities in a variety of settings. I've done everything from working in early childhood education with autistic children, to summer camps, all the way up to high school and college tutoring. I currently work in special education with Deaf children. However, I will be starting graduate school for speech therapy in the Fall. I have a background in the sciences, so naturally my favorite activities include fun experiments and adventures! I strongly believe in children learning from their natural environment, but also understand the importance of structure and routine. Right now I am only available after school hours or on weekends, but I will be available 24/7 for the majority of the summer. I am CPR certified, Safety Care certified (crisis prevention), and T. E. A. C. H. (Techniques for Effective Adolescent & Child Handling) certified. I also work as a pet sitter, so I have no problem keeping an eye on your pets as well!
