I am a 24-year-old graduate student seeking a full-time summer or occasional babysitting position. I am an active and enthusiastic caregiver who loves giving children room to explore, create, and learn. I am passionate about providing children with the resources they need to thrive. I am currently a graduate student earning my Masters degree in Social Work at the University of Illinois - Chicago (UIC). In high school and into college, I provided childcare services for a family with two children aged six and 10. I have also served as a recreational counselor at a summer treatment program for children with ADHD and related disorders. While in college, I worked at a youth treatment center for children with emotional and behavioral issues. Post-college I served as an AmeriCorps member at a low-income school where I provide educational and emotional supports to students. Currently, I work as a part time youth Read more care worker at a group home for young boys and I am finishing up my tenure as a child therapy intern.
