Summary
My name is Rebekka Grobbel. I have been working with children for about 13 years. I have also worked for FedEx and I had an evening nanny job as well during that time. I have worked with all ages from infant to school age and loved them all, but infants and toddlers will always have a special place in my heart. I am highly experienced in supporting early childhood education through effective communication with parents regarding children's progress and concerns. Engaged children in creative play and structured activities, fostering individual development while ensuring safety during outings and daily routines. Participated in professional development to enhance knowledge of child development and behavior management strategies, contributing to a positive learning environment. Being able to watch children learn and grow, while giving them a positive and loving environment is something I truly enjoy and I hope to continue building a career in this field.
