I am currently seeking babysitting jobs for near Keene, NH for the year 2017. I will be continuing my education at Keene State College with a dual major of Secondary Education and American Studies. I am employed at Keene YMCA as a lead camp counselor at Camp Wakonda! In the past I have worked at the Keene Daycare Center as a tutor and as a nanny to a family of three, a family of two, and one other girl for many years. Through these experiences I have learned so much about engaging children, teaching children, behavior management, and safety! Through working with these children, I truly found that I have a knack for connecting with kids, utilizing my lighthearted yet caring and cautious personality. It is a joy for me to spend time with children because I enjoy watching them grow and being a part of that process even if Read more it is in a small way. Some of the skills I have gained through my experiences are: • Ability to deal with difficult situations with consideration, tactfulness, sensitivity, and patience. • Eager to educate and engage children. • Adept at supervising and caring for children in the absence of parents or regular caregiver • Competent at performing housekeeping duties and cooking meals for children as per employer’s instructions • Able to Tutor young children in literacy skills and development. • Using leadership skills to supervise and monitor the safety, health, and hygiene of children as well as implement behavior intervention. • Organize activities and develop routines that allow children to learn about the world and explore interests. As an exceptionally determined and focused student, I offer the ability to apply the knowledge I gain from my career-specific courses to my job. My empathetic, accountable, intuitive, and genuine personality along with ample customer service skills allow me to communicate and collaborate well with any individual or group of individuals. I am a natural born leader who can mentor people using my understanding of resilience, adaptability, motivation, and passion. I truly enjoy helping others to gain positive experiences in life and aim to offer something new or special to everyone I encounter!
