Registered Nurse looking for extra work. I currently work weekends in a metro emergency department. I successfully run a single parent house hold and have 3 children ages 9, 13 and 15. I enjoy spending time with children, exploring and learning new things with the kids. I am certified in adult and children CPR along with many other advanced trainings including trauma for adult and pediatrics. I began babysitting when I was 13 and even took a babysitting course at that age. Since then I have helped friends with last minute day care and even care of their children when they are ill and the parent needs to attend work.
