I work from home for the University of Texas at San Antonio coordinating community service for college students. I often coordinate volunteer programs on youth development and spend time volunteering with youth K-12 at various after school programs. I moved to San Antonio 1 year ago for work upon finishing my Masters Degree. Now, comfortable in my full-time job, I am prepared to work part-time providing child care once again. I enjoy spending time with children and find it rewarding to provide enriching activities for youth. I have babysat for families on a regular basis as well as the occasional date night babysitting for multiple families. My experience with regular families have been with two to three kids ages ranging from 2 to 9 years old as well as one family with one six month old baby that I cared for weekly. I have worked at after school programs/day-cares with Read more kids from low-income families. Their ages have ranged from 9 months to 12 years old. My first year as a college student, I worked as a coordinator at a program where I was responsible for getting the kids off the bus, providing assistance in homework, serving snacks, and conducting fun activities and games. When the program closed due to funding, I continued to mentor and provide homework help to elementary and middle school students. I volunteered regularly in schools and with programs such as Girls Inc., Boys and Girls Club, and the YMCA. I have volunteered to face paint for Girls Inc.'s Halloween party and the Boys and Girls Club "Kid Day". In the summer, I volunteer time running a Kids tent with crafts, games, and face painting at a Fireman's fundraiser event. I love doing crafts, playing games, and being active outside with kids.

Kirsten took care of 5 children (ages 2-7) at my daughter's wedding reception last Sunday. With my permission, she brought a helper so one sitter could continue playing with the kids, while the second sitter could escort kids who wanted to return to their parents back to the reception hall. My grandson (6 years old) said she was so much fun, she was the best sitter he ever had. I would hire Kirsten again in a heartbeat. Deb B.
