Originally from Punjab, India, I have considered Canada my home since 2016. With over 7 years of experience in the childcare industry, I possess a strong educational background in childcare, along with an administrative certificate and an LLQP license.
My passion for working with children motivates me to create a safe, engaging, and inclusive environment where each child can thrive. I believe in nurturing a love for learning through creative play and age-appropriate activities that enhance cognitive, emotional, and social development. I have a solid foundation in developing personalized lesson plans tailored to the unique needs of each child to ensure they reach their full potential. My communication skills enable me to build positive relationships with children and their families, fostering a collaborative atmosphere that supports each child's growth.
I am dedicated to providing a nurturing environment that fosters curiosity, creativity, and confidence in every child under my care. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to your team.
