Compassionate early childhood educator supporting safe, engaging learning for kids.
What I'm looking for
I’m a motivated and compassionate UCLA Psychology graduate with experience supporting children from toddlers through middle school in educational and after-school settings. I bring a steady, caring approach to classroom support, behavior management, and creating safe, engaging environments where kids can thrive socially, emotionally, and developmentally.
In my current role as a Teacher’s Assistant at Blue Oak Creative Schoolhouse, I assist lead teachers in a Reggio Emilia-inspired learning environment by supporting daily routines, play-based education, and age-appropriate transitions. Previously, as an Aftercare Counselor at St. Paul the Apostle School, I supervised and engaged 50–80 elementary and middle school students while planning weekly arts and crafts and supporting daily classroom management. I’ve also led weekly preschool activities through Jumpstart, including arts and crafts, reading, dramatic play, and writing exercises, and I’ve organized hands-on projects and science experiments for Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten students at Recreation Reimagined.
