Ms Martin nurture infants and dedicates her time to the whole child. She is the most patient, and gentle caregiver I have had the pleasure of working with. She helps to identify her students extra needs at early stages and supports parents in finding appropriate paths for early childhood intervention. She works very hard to incorporate sensory play daily, baby yoga, sign language and gross motor development. Ms Martin creates bonds with the children that are entrusted to her. She mentors other employees and encourages them as well. Ms Martin continues to reshape the way that infants are cared for in a "center" environment. She attends continuing education classes often, and has shared her opinion on state regulations and the quality rating system in our state. She strives everyday for improvement in care, education, and interaction with these small people. It isn't just a job for her, but her passion.
