I created a compassionate and fun environment for a classroom of one-year-olds. I fashioned lesson plans based on monthly themes and developmental skills, and I provided a quality day care experience that parents and supervisors can trust. I also spend time in classrooms with infants up to classrooms with five-year-olds providing care and assisting with activities.
