Corinna R.

I really love being with children! I have a wide variety of experience engaging children at home and in educational settings. Currently (until the end of April 2019), I teach at a Waldorf/Montessori inspired preschool. In the past, I’ve worked with toddlers and preschool-aged children in Montessori settings, as well as in an infant room, caring for several babies at once. Prior to grad school, I worked as a nanny (Infancy to ~ 2.5 years old) for over two years for a wonderful family and provided regular childcare for a large community of families in the area. While earning an MFA in poetry, alongside teaching college courses, I continued to babysit regularly and held poetry workshops for elementary-aged kids. I have many references that I would be more than happy to provide! I have current Child and Infant CPR and First Aid Certification!

I love the practice of improvising infants and children of all ages enliven. It’s my hope to follow the child’s interests and help them create a nourishing and stimulating environment specific to their desires. With all ages, my primary focus is on creating a sense of equality and friendship between myself and the child(ren) as I strive to support them in cultivating a strong sense of (imaginative) agency and capacity for compassionate communication with themselves and others. I believe we all thrive most in environments where we feel valued and safe.

AVAILABILITY: Beginning early May 2019, I’m open to full-time, part-time, and one-time jobs. It’s my goal to accommodate parents to the best of my ability!
