Describe your childcare style:I love children, and my interaction with them mirrors the same loving, patient, and kind atmosphere that I was blessed to be raised in. I help them learn, grow, and gain new skills, and help prepare them for their future education. I engage children in age appropriate play, and love to stimulate their imaginations with silly time. I have a bottomless well of belief in children, and their potential, and treasure the unique gifts each child brings. Children love me because I am fun to be with, and have a childlike sense of humor. I enjoy teaching children about the natural world around us and different cultures from around the world. Through out our day, I name the world. I believe that everything we do, and everywhere we go is a teaching opportunity. I will provide a positive, healthy, loving, and creative example for children while their parents are away from home.
