Hi Families! I'm Michelle, a dedicated childcare professional with diverse experience, roles as a babysitter and paraprofessional in classrooms. Alongside my Bachelor's degree in Communications from Kean University, I hold a Nanny Certificate and CPR/First Aid certification. As a family-oriented individual and a pet lover, I prioritize safety and emotional support in my childcare approach. Moreover, hiking and painting are my hobbies, which allow me to nurture my creativity. In my previous role as a paraprofessional, I worked extensively with individuals on the autism spectrum and related disabilities. This experience has solidified my passion for assisting individuals in learning and developing essential life skills. I absolutely love what I do! I consider myself self-sufficient, patient, caring, responsible, and fun.
