I have experience in multiple areas of care. Growing up I was a babysitter for all of my parents friends for almost any occasion. I was then a set babysitter/nanny in highschool for two children, one boy one girl, ages 5 and 8. I would pick them up after school, make sure homework was completed, along with figuring out activities to keep their mind learning and busy. When I graduated high school I worked in the health field while attending some college. I then decided to do this full time. I worked for the company service net which job entailed me to do all forms of care: hygiene, medical, financial, etc. I basically managed multiple individuals lives at once. Within about one year I worked my way up to site manager where I did said task on top of completing the duties of being manager as well. I left there Read more to work for Department of Developmental Services for about three years where I continued to help manage and run five individuals lives including all things said above. I am CPR/ First Aid certified as well as med certified if a child ever needed medication administered. I have 8 nieces and nephews with a new niece on the way and I am very much educated on the needs of an infant or toddler. I know how to cook, clean, laundry , and almost any task that may be asked of me. I love to have fun and enjoy doing activities! I would love to talk more if there are any questions or if you would enjoy more detail !
