Teresa R.
SUMMARY
An experienced Childcare provider with a Bachelor's degree in Child Development in the College of Education. I have over 20 years of experience in providing supervision and guidance to children from newborns to 5-year-olds, as well as Special Education K-6th grade. I have experience with daycare, public schools, churches, and private home settings and highly accomplished in creating educational and recreational activities designed to develop children's emotional, behavioral, and social skills. I'm dedicated to helping children better understand the world around them and create relationships with parents to enrich children's lives through play and learning. I am patient, loving, energetic, and trustworthy, and I'm excited to partner with a family with young children to create meaningful experiences.
