About Me

I am a dedicated and caring special education teacher with over 3 years of experience working with children of different ages and learning needs. My background includes both classroom teaching and hands-on childcare during internships and previous jobs. In addition to my formal experience, I took care of my nephew from infancy until he turned 3, giving me strong, practical knowledge of how to care for babies and toddlers. I’ve also worked with older children — including those around 12 years old — supporting their academic, emotional, and social development in both individual and group settings. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and stimulating environments for children of all ages. I love helping them learn through play, daily routines, and meaningful conversations, always adapting to each child’s unique personality and needs.
