Hello, thank you for viewing my profile I appreciate your consideration. My name is Faith McManus and I'm a student at the SUNY Albany. For the past seven years I've had experience working as an elderly care aid, personal babysitter and nanny for a lovely family, and also I am a CPR certified camp counselor for the YMCA. I worked monday through friday from 8:30 until 5:00 all summer long with 12 children ages 5 and 6. In addition, I also worked part time while in high school as a nanny to three children ages 6, 11, and 13. While working as a nanny I picked the children up from school, gave them a snack, did homework with them, entertained and played sports with them, and lastly, drove them to any extra curricular activities they had to fulfill. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and I have had Read more my drivers license for three years in November. I have had 60 hours worth of training in fields such as Child Abuse, Child Safety, Engaging Youth, and and Empowering Youth courses. Lastly, I have worked in my mother's childcare facility with children ages 3 to 6 in the day care center for the past six years. I worked on developing the skills of toddlers in academic and verbal areas. I appreciate and enjoy working with children because it brings me a satisfaction and sense of fulfillment by helping children reach their full potential and by adding to their happiness and self worth. I encourage all of the children I work with to do their best and excel in the fields in which they are the most proficient to build their energy and self esteem. I do not mind housework, errands, or chores, in addition I can cook due to my experience from living in a house with five siblings. I feel I am a good candidate for a childcare position because I am energetic, inventive, dependable, flexible, and honest. I can work around any schedule given notice. Given the opportunity, I can also work with families of many children due to my intense training and experience.
