Hello, my name is Misty and I am 28 years old and I absolutely love working with children of all ages. For the past 3 and a half years I have been working as a toddler teacher in the Overland Park area. With the school year at its end I am looking for other income opportunities for the summer. I just began my last class for my Bachelors and will have my degree by the end of the summer. I am CPR and first-aid certified, I have taken ECE (early childhood education) courses and would also like to get my CDA (child development associate) during the next school year or so. I also have all of the training clock hours required by the KDHE (Kansas department of health and education) to work in a licensed childcare facility. However, I would like to find a great family to work for at Read more least over the summer as I finish up my Bachelors degree. There is also a good chance that I am willing to be more long term as well depending on pay, etc. I am single, with no family or many friends in the area and am not on a lease. With nothing currently 'tying me down' I am pretty open and flexible to location, hours, and length of employment. As long as I have an acceptable rate of pay I really just want to continue working with children! I really am passionate about children and love to watch them learn and grow. It would be amazing to be able to build a strong relationship with just one or only a few families and be readily available as their personal nanny. I love to read to/with, sing songs to/with, play all sorts of games, think of fun activities, do arts and crafts and help kiddos learn!
