I am compassionate, kind, energetic, and responsible with 9 years of childcare experience. I have taken care of children from 6 months to 10 years old, and everything in between, with up to five children under my supervision at one time. I am excellent at multitasking, with patience and consideration for any challenging situation. I graduated in May of 2011 with my Bachelor's of Art from Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, followed immediately by an accelerated Master's of Science in Communications completed in May of 2012. I love fostering an imaginative and creative environment that feeds children's exploration of the world around them and the people that they will one day become. I enjoy the outdoors, sports, arts and crafts, and playing games. I have a peaceful and tranquil demeanor although I have worked in very fast paced, task oriented environments. This spring I worked with the Unified basketball league that brings people with and without intellectual disabilities together through practicing and playing sports and of course having fun! My core values are empathy, respect, honesty, and kindness.
