Hello! I'm a compassionate and energetic medical student about to graduate, with a genuine love for working with children and helping them thrive. I've had the joy of caring for kids of all ages, bringing a warm, nurturing, and patient approach to every interaction. I love creating fun and engaging activities like arts and crafts, storytelling, and even simple science experiments to keep kids entertained and learning. With my medical background, I'm attentive, responsible, and well-equipped to handle any situation calmly and thoughtfully. Every child is unique, and I enjoy tailoring my care to meet their individual needs and personalities. For me, childcare is more than a job, it's a privilege to help children feel safe, supported, and inspired to grow.
