My name is Claudia Mikeliunas and I have been doing child care since 1998. After the birth of my third child I opened my business and since then I have never stoped learning and changing things in the program.
I am highly trained and have a strong understanding of child development. I have been growing in the Maryland Credentialing (actually I am level 6, the highest), I am level 5 of the Maryland Excels and I have the National Accreditation from NAFCC.
I also have AAS in Early Childhood from Montgomery College and a Bachelor in early childhood education from Washington Adventist University.
In my youth I was a volunteer counselor at my local YMCA (Montevideo, Uruguay) for 8 years. During those years the majority of my time I was doing sleep away camp for over a week with children over 5 years of age. We even traveled with 73 children to Disney World, Brazil and Argentina. At the end of my volunteer work I was in charge of 150 children and their counselors at our sleep away camp and I was an active Executive Board member of the Metropolitan YMCA.
