What do you want people to know about your teaching philosophy?
When working with infants, my teaching philosophy prioritizes a nurturing environment that fosters a strong bond though consistent care, individualized attention to each baby's needs, a focus on sensory exploration and playful interactions to support their development at their own pace, all while maintaining open communication with parents to ensure their child feels safe and supported.

Why do you find the work you do important?
Working with infants is important because the first few years of a child's life are crucial for brain development, laying the foundation for future learning, behavior, overall well-being, also providing nurturing care and stimulating environments during infancy. You can witness their milestones and contributing to their positive growth.

Anything else you'd like to share?
I enjoy working with the children. I love to see their happy faces and be able to help them to learn and help to keep them safe.
