About Mali

Hello! My name is Mali and I'm 25 years old! I recently got married and moved to the area, and I'm excited to build new connections with local children and families! I am currently working towards a double major bachelor's degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education and am CPR/AED certified. I genuinely love working with children and enjoy play, being silly, doing crafts, reading stories, playing outside, and finding activities that match each child's personality and interests. My classroom experience has also taught me how to balance having fun with routines, boundaries, safety, and lots of patience. For the past three years, I worked as a preschool assistant at a Lutheran school while also nannying a wonderful little boy. Growing up with six younger siblings, I feel like I've essentially been working in childcare my whole life!
