Hello! I have a Bachelor's in Psychology with Neuroscience and Global Health Minors. I have ample experience in childcare. My most recent job was at Connecticut Children's Medical Center (CCMC). I work in the behavioral unit of CCMC and have worked with a wide age range, starting at 6 months and going up to 21 year olds. Throughout the years of experience of working with children, I have developed patience and resiliency skills to work with the pediatric age group. I am a very loving, caring and devoted person who wants to help others and ensure all their needs are met. I try my best to follow the family structure and rules to ensure the children are able to maintain their routines when their parents are not present. I am CPR, ACLS and CPI certified. I have reliable transportation and I am known to always being on time.
