I am a 20 year old student studying Human Development and Family Studies, focusing a lot on child development. I have over a decade of childcare experience. I learned to change diapers at 9 years old. Starting from when they were infants, I took care of younger kids in my family that are now 11, 8, 7, 5. With my early experiences, I came to really enjoy watching children grow, have fun, and become more independent. The little ones that I interact with tend to see me as their friends as I offer them a fun one-on-one play experience. I get them interested in creative activities we can do around the house or outside, so that they can learn and create quality memories instead of relying on technology. From observing and learning at a child development laboratory, I am experienced in using positive reinforcement to facilitate teaching children to learn Read more how to behave and handle difficult situations on their own. With the guidance of the head teacher, I learned useful skills to help children have fun exploring new materials, learn how to manage their emotions, and grow in each developmental area.
