About Kimberly

Experience: 3 yrs

I bring a blend of professional expertise and genuine enthusiasm to childcare, I'm eager to create a nurturing and stimulating environment for your child! My background as a bilingual speech pathologist in an elementary school gives me a unique perspective when it comes to child care. I have three years of experience including previous child care work and my first year as a speech therapist. I enjoy fostering children's growth through my patience, creativity, and friendly nature always prioritizing open communication with parents using their preferred method. I happily follow your lead when enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities that promote learning. I hold a graduate degree and have completed early child development coursework in both Spanish and English. I have also been certified in CPR. I'm excited to bring my skills and passion to your family and make this summer memorable for your little ones!

I welcomed Kimmy into my early childhood education classroom at WI, Madison. She spent the semester in my classroom expanding her early childhood education knowledge and skills. Kimmy is excellent at working with children of various developmental abilities. She cares deeply about the thoughtful care and education of children. She takes the time to get to know each child individually and provide them with the most impactful care and support they require. Kimmy has since expanded her education/experience working with children in various roles. She is an excellent problem solver, and is able to comfortably and effectively handle stressful/potentially hazardous situations that could arise. I would feel completely at ease with Kimmy caring for my child. She will be a great caregiver for your child/children. I cannot recommend her enough as a warm, fun, compassionate, and knowledgeable caregiver.
