About Erika

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am 34 and an elementary school teacher. I hold a Masters Degree in Elementary Education and am state certified in Rhode Island for grade 1-6. I additionally have an undergrad degree in Social Work and own and operate my own Irish Dance School - Tir Na Nog, in Cumberland, RI. I began babysitting at age 12 after taking a class at Rhode Island Hospital on babysitting! I am full of energy and love kids. If an emergency were to arise, I am very quick on my feet and know how to remain calm in these situations. I love being able to influence a child's life, playing with them, and helping with homework. I have worked with multiple families throughout the years watching infants grow and eventually go into kindergarten. I love craft projects, book reading, fort building, board games, lego, outside play and more. Anything to see a child smile and their brain grow!
