Meet Charlene

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am a MSW graduate with a focus on children and disabled individuals. For the past two years I have been working at a early childhood education facility for children the age of 8 weeks to five years old. In my position, I have mostly worked with infants and toddlers. In addition, I currently am employed by the Center for Disability Services in a residential facility caring for elderly disabled individuals. Prior to my current positions I was a teacher assistant for two years in a middle school. From my work experience one can gather that I am extremely interested in the helping field. During my spare time I babysit for families. During these sessions, I like to incorporate learning with play. I am First Aid and CPR certified. As well I am certified to administer all kind of medication.
