For the past four years I’ve gain both experience and knowledge in the field of childcare. During that time, I’ve been an after school liaison working with many kids in one sitting. Helping children with homework, creating lessons, and being a huge influence in there development. I’m currently a college student at Brooklyn college double majoring in both business management and child and youth studies. Seeking to one day open my own non-profit organization, to solely provide kids of all ages with affordable classes in the ARTs. During my high school career I volunteered at a community center, providing care to elementary school kids, and ever since I’ve been a group counselor for the YMCA. I have a natural gift of relating, motivating, and understanding children. I am dedicated, enthusiastic, committed and skilled at creating a platform that focuses on the child’s development. I encourage and lead children in imaginative Read more play, song, dance and much more. I am certified in first aid and have completed multiple trainings involving children. I have great references and am willing to have a background check.
