Hi! I'm Miss Lynn, and I have one solid year teaching in daycare and currently work as a substitute daycare teacher! I genuinely enjoy playing with and teaching kiddos. Arts and crafts, singing, dancing, outdoor play, dolls, dress-up, board games, helping out with homework and video games - I can do it all! I like to bring my ow materials during work as well - typically my own children's stories and coloring pages. I like to give out little candies or stickers as incentives for educational activities if the parents allow it. I discipline based on the parent's preference. By default, I use the distraction approach, as all childcare facilities have adopted. I ensure diaper changing surfaces are cleaned with the parent's provided cleaning materials, and encourage hand-washing. I have no issues with teaching potty-training either - just know that two years is the the minumum age I am willing to do so. I understand children with autism pretty well, as I was diagnosed with it myself at age eleven. I am only moderately affected, but can usually see and understand what is bothering the child's senses or why they might feel frustrated, as I remember my early frustrations vividly. I grew up with a child that was almost entirely non-verbal as well, and am very patient with them. I ask a lot of questions, I provide a set of answers if need be, and I am patient. I also love to entertain their interests - if they like the moon, I might bring in a book about moons. I, in particular, was obsessed with gerbils when I was little, and my mother brought me every book about gerbils that she could find! I am also familiar with ADHD, and encourage wiggling exercises and the use of fidget toys. For example, I might give the child a fidget toy to play with during story time or when it's time to settle for nap time. As I hav mentioned, I work as a sub or daycare facilities throughout Phoenix, so I like to follow a similar schedule like the typical centers do. (I would follow the parent's preferred schedule, however.) Anyway, what else can I say other than I love to make babysitting days fun? I'm very silly, very animated, and safety-oriented!
