I am extremely caring, dedicated, and highly self-motivated. I love spending time with all children and being able to give them a memorable childhood. I am sure to be the most responsible role model possible. I am hoping to pursue a nannying position while finishing college, mainly online courses, for the next six years or longer for Business Management. I have had many babysitting opportunities growing up, especially helping care for my 3 younger brothers since birth(ages:7,8,9yo.) I have nearly 5-6 years of experience with children diagnoed with Autism Disorder with the youngest(currently 7 years old). Including safely transporting, potty-training, public assistance, and age- friendly adventures (Parks, Zoo, Church, movies, etc.) Another experience of mine consists of completing a semester of learning about infants and how to raise a child. I passed with an A+ for a 2-week test on caring for a close to real-life infant where I safely Read more transported to school and any other events. Passing with an A, I was able to learn in-depth about each stage of growth and brain development from birth. This class maintained a focus on how to create a stimulating and educational environment. Another experience with children, ages ranging from 6mo-13 years old, includes managing a fun Kids-Night weekly(sometimes more) for nearly 2 years at Bob Evans Restaurant. I organized activities ranging from creating a safe and mess-free slime together all the way to planting flowers and painting flower pots and so much more. Beginning my sophomore year of high school I also began a volunteering organization where I managed everything from meetings, fundraising, volunteering sight directions/carpooling etc,. I have also completed a full day of training at my local hospitals babysitting seminar including in-depth child care safety and health teachings/regulations. I have become certified in CPR and rescue breathing twice now. My last one just recently expired and I am currently in the process of retaking the class. I will greatly pass a background check upon request due to strictly cost purposes.
