Konstantina O

Overview

My name is Konstantina, I am 26 years old, and I am a graduate of the Department of Philology with a specialization in Linguistics from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. From a very young age, I knew that I wanted to work with children and be involved in their education and development. Consequently, my main occupation over the years has been the care, teaching, encouragement, and entertainment of children, from preschool age to early adulthood.

In addition to my primary studies, I attended two nine-month seminars in the field of Special Education and worked—both voluntarily and professionally—at ALMA, the Association of Adapted Activities. The beneficiaries of the program are children and young people on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Through this organization, I have participated in multi-day recreational and educational camping programs.

Alongside my main occupations, I have worked in environments such as daycare centers, kindergartens, and play centers as an educator. Additionally, I have gained valuable experience working as a nanny, providing personalized care and support to children in their home environments. This role has further enriched my understanding of child development and the importance of creating a nurturing and stimulating atmosphere for each child.

Currently, I work as a parallel support teacher, providing specialized assistance to children with additional needs within mainstream classrooms. This role allows me to implement individualized educational plans and ensure that each child receives the support they need to thrive both academically and socially.

Beyond the objective aspects of my educational background, I possess strong communication skills adapted to various environments. I value growth and development and take joy in seeing children happy, safe, and balanced in both mind and body—enjoying their childhood as they truly deserve.
