• Comfortable with pets

Hi! My name is Tabitha! I’m currently a freshman enrolled at Northern Arizona University. I’m majoring in psychology to hopefully become a child psychologist or therapist! I have two younger nephews who I love to babysit! I started babysitting when I was around 15, my nephew was about 5. I started babysitting my second nephew when he was around 2. I would usually watch them for 4-5 hours. During this time I often entertained, fed, and helped them. I love helping with math and english homework! I started teaching my older nephew long division before I left for NAU. During my senior year of high school, I took a class called “ROP Careers In Teaching”, this was an internship class. I learned about child development, took a training course for becoming a mandatory reporter, a CPR course, and eventually got to work in a elementary school class. I interned for Read more a first grade class! It was absolutely amazing to work them. It was definitely one of my favorite parts of senior year. In the class, I helped them with their work, read to them, joined them on a field trip, and even taught a few lessons of my own. A few of these students had special needs, giving me a small amount of special needs experience. Working with these kids taught me patience and care. I was also able to go out to recess with them a few times. It was so fun! It was very important for me to provide a safe and positive learning and developmental experience. It is my favorite part of working with kids and babysitting.
