Hello! My name is Penny and I would like to tell you a bit about myself. From 2016-2018, I worked at preschool centers in the Reno area as a Teaching Assistant, Breaker/Floater, Substitute Teacher and Evening Manager. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology, I take Early Childhood Education classes as part of my ongoing education/training and I have experience working with children with Special Needs. Additionally, I have numerous years of experience taking care of my 2 granddaughters, one who is 14 years old and one who is 2 years old. I relocated to the Las Vegas area in May of this year and immediately started working with a program that provides military families with respite care for their children with special needs. I also provide babysitting services through a local agency that caters to both locals and tourists. I love children and I am blessed to Read more be able to continue my child care career here! I have a flexible schedule, so I am usually available to work with your schedule and needs. Additionally, I love, and I'm comfortable with, all animals. I have a current LVMPD sheriff's card, a current negative TB test, current certification in adult and pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED, a clean driving record, a current resume and excellent references upon request. I am very active and enjoy hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, etc., as well as reading and cooking. Thank you for reviewing my background and experience. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Penny
