My name is Chris, and I am currently a junior at SUNY Cortland. I am pursuing a degree in Adapted Physical Education, with a dual-certification in health education. Adapted PE is a concentration that specializes in disabilities and special needs students. I have a large range of experience working with children with and without disabilities from the Pre-K level, all the way through seniors 65 years and older. I have field experience in Pre-K physical education, elementary physical education, and senior physical education. I decided to become a caregiver because I truly love what I do. The experiences I share with children not only leave a lasting impression on myself, but I know that I can change a child's life for the better in the long run. I am very passionate about what I do, and love waking up everyday and helping kids. They are what makes me love what Read more I do so very much. I have the utmost patience in the world for them. I am very enthusiastic, and it is rare that you cant find a smile on my face. I will be able to assist any child who needs physical activity, adapted physical education, physical education, therapeutic recreation, etc.
