About Natalie

I'm a MA-certified early educator looking for a change of pace! I've spent the past 2 years teaching in a toddler classroom, and before that I was a full-time nanny for 3 families, with children ranging from 3 months to 7 years. I'm moving to western MA in June, and I would love to be a part of your kids' summer and school-year care! I am a big fan of the Reggio-Emilia approach, which centers the child's partnership with their caregiver in a mutual thirst for discovery and exploration. There's something so special for me about engaging those huge imaginations and hungry curiosities to get kids active in their own learning! I am certified in pediatric CPR and first aid, and I have a current driver's license with a clean record. I'm very willing to assist with transportation, and I love getting kids involved with cooking and housework, to help them develop positive relationships with their space, each other, and themselves!
