I am a special education major with a double major in elementary education and spanish with a minor in psychology. I am in my second year at the University of Rhode Island. I have worked with kids since I was 15 years old. I have volunteered at the Special Olympics, and have worked with various families over these past 4 years. I have worked at an overnight camp for two years with 10-14 year olds and this year I am working at a day camp with 2 and 3 year olds. I am CPR and first aid certified as well as babysitter certified from the red cross. I would say I am an energetic, fun, creative, person and I love working with kids. I have also dog sit before and have my own dog at home so I am quite comfortable working with pets. I am comfortable preparing meals, doing Read more laundry, as well as light cleaning and house seeping.
