I live in Huntington and have a history of working with children and teens ages infant-18 years.  I have worked with various community organizations to educate children in the areas of substance abuse prevention, life skills, and making healthy choices. I pride myself in providing children with a positive, nurturing pro-social enviroment that encourages them to learn and grow.  I have a flexible work schedule, which helps with my ability to schedule childcare appointments. I have been a part-time childcare provider for 10 years.  I have cared for children of various ages, from infants through age 18.  I enjoy doing interactive educational activities with kids, such as art and music.  I was also a lifeguard and swim teacher for 4 years, as well as a teacher at a local daycare. In the past, I have taught several Babysitting courses for pre-teens throughout the Town of Huntington through a previous non-profit Read more I worked for. I enjoy providing a safe and motivating environment for the children I care for. I have a resume and references that are available upon request, as well as several letters of recommendation.
