About me

I grew up in a small town in Connecticut. I lived with my grandparents and two childhood cats. After graduating high school, I made my way to upstate New York to complete my undergraduate studies in early childhood education. After completing my undergraduate education, I moved to New York City to complete my graduate program in Early Childhood Education. I will soon be heading back to school to attend school to become a child therapist.

I have worked with children since high school. I began by volunteering for a program called Grandparents Raising Grandchildren where I provided families with childcare and offered to tutor. I then moved on to work in a childcare facility with children from 3 months to 10 years old. I spent most of my time working with infants and toddlers. During this time I was responsible for feeding children, heating up bottled, changing diapers, and planning different lessons for the children. After completing my master's program, I began to work for the school district. I have worked in first grade and preschool during this time.

I have always found children to be inspiring, thought-provoking, and some of life's greatest teachers. As a creative person myself, I love to bring this aspect into my work with my children. Whether that be by telling stories, singing songs, drawing pictures, or visiting a museum and encouraging all of the "why's and how's?"
