“I describe myself as patient, kind, caring, dependable and I have a great sense of humor! My favorite activities with children are tailored to each developmental stage. For Infants, I focus on essential growth through daily tummy time to build motor skills, sensory play to explore textures and sounds, and stroller walks to provide fresh air and visual stimulation. For Toddlers, I enjoy more interactive and creative play, such as: Literacy & Music: Reading engaging stories and exploring various musical styles to encourage confident singing and dancing. Artistic Expression: Hands-on sculpting with clay or “Dream Sand” and drawing with crayons and outdoor/sidewalk chalk. Imaginative Play: Engaging in “food prep” in a play kitchen to spark curiosity, social skills, and fine motor development. In my free time I enjoy meeting up and/or chatting online with family and friends; walking for fitness; attending live music/musical/dance/entertainment performances and events; fashion and sewing; seasonal crafts; baking and cooking.”
