Hello! My name is Merete Gasstrom and I am currently working on my Liberal Arts degree at SUNY Broome. I'm looking for child care and pet care jobs to fill the time in between freelance writing jobs during the summer. I'm a certified Black Belt instructor and have great experience with children of all kinds. I know how to keep children entertained and engaged and on track (I used to teach classes with upwards of 10 children at a time). As well as being a martial arts instructor, I have 4 cats and a Great Dane so I am very used to pets. My mother and I used to foster problem cats and newborn kittens so I'm used to problem solving with small animals as well as very large animals. Please! Don't hesitate to contact me if you're near the Hillcrest area or in Binghamton. I do not have a Read more car at the moment, I am saving up, but I am willing to take the bus or walk or bike if it is within my reach. I have a resume available if need be.
