I am a warm, caring, and highly experienced childcare professional with over 20 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged children. As a mother of three children myself, I understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. Throughout my career, I have cared for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children in various settings, including operating my own licensed family daycare in Regina, Saskatchewan, which I successfully managed until June 2026 before relocating to Alberta. My experience also includes caring for my nieces and nephews, providing foster care for children in Regina, and supporting families with diverse childcare needs. I have extensive experience working with children with special needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and ADD. I am patient, compassionate, and skilled at adapting routines and activities to meet each child's individual developmental and emotional needs. In addition to childcare, I enjoy preparing healthy, nutritious meals and snacks for children and families. I am social, dependable, organized, and dedicated to building positive relationships with both children and parents through open communication and trust.

I have extensive experience in the childcare, youth support, and early childhood education sector, gained through operating a bilingual family daycare, providing private childcare services, and supporting vulnerable youth through social services. Since 2017, I have operated a bilingual family daycare, where I am responsible for creating and maintaining a safe, inclusive, and stimulating environment that promotes children's cognitive, social, emotional, and behavioural development. I design and implement educational activities, life-skills programs, and age-appropriate learning experiences that support children's growth and school readiness. I work closely with families to ensure each child's individual needs are met while maintaining compliance with childcare regulations and safety standards. In addition to my daycare experience, I have provided long-term private childcare services, including caring for a child with autism for four years and his younger sister for one year. This role involved supporting developmental milestones, implementing positive behaviour strategies, assisting with learning activities, organizing recreational and community outings, and fostering socialization and independence. As a Youth Support Worker with the Ministry of Social Services, I provide frontline support to vulnerable and homeless youth through crisis intervention, behaviour management, safety planning, and trauma-informed care. I collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, document client progress, and help youth develop life skills and achieve positive outcomes. Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in child development, behaviour management, family engagement, crisis intervention, activity planning, conflict resolution, trauma-informed care, and creating supportive environments that help children and youth thrive.
