Experience: 5 yrs
I come from a large Irish family and grew up with kids around at all times and I love working with children. I taught preschool for about 5 years so I am very comfortable with multiple children and can create fun and educational activities to keep days more structured if necessary, but I am also happy to allow the children to guide the day. I'm also a certified yoga teacher so I can incorporate that when it's age appropriate. I'm from the east coast so I don't get to see my family as much since I miss being around children and watching them grow and experience the world.
Brittany used to be a teacher and it shows. My 4 year old has a severe speech impediment and she was so encouraging and helpful with his communication. It gave me a confidence in care I hadn't had before. I also have a 1 year old and she kept them both engaged, fed (which, how did she get them to even eat that much? Magic?) And they did not stop talking about "Aunt Bernie" and how she knows how to help with video games all day.
