Baby Class Teacher at Church Kidz, creating lesson plans and arts-and-crafts activities for children.

As a Baby Class Teacher at Church Kidz, I work with young children. My experience also includes homeschooling my daughter and creating Sunday School lesson plans with arts-and-crafts activities.

I’ve served as a Youth Leader and Church Kidz Volunteer, and I was a babysitter and coffee shop owner. I enjoy singing, making music, and creative activities with children, while keeping discipline and schedules in mind.
