Hello! A little about myself I am a new mother myself of a 3 month old sweet and mellow babygirl that I am hopeful in bringing along with me. If you know you know children can love babies! I can work without bringing her along as well if preferred. I have lived/grown up in Southern Oregon my entire life. I graduated from Eagle Point High School in 2018. Through both my long time personal and professional work experiences I feel I have been able to greatly grow my communication skills, listening skills, and creativity, which I know are all important to have when working with children always. I have always found that I do greatly enjoy working and interacting with kids. I have worked in child care/babysitting since the age of 13 myself (10+ years), as well as 1 year with the Rogue Valley YMCA Child Care program where I Read more was an Instructional Counselor and Lead Supervisor of the After School Program with groups of about 20-30 children max all ranging K-5th grade. My most previous work experience was within the Ashland School District as an Educational Assistant based in a Charter School of K-8th grade. Educating children both academically and focusing in their social and emotional development (ranging from ages 5-14). Just to be an experience in a child’s life even for a short time, is an incredible responsibility to have. Every being is different as well, every child and mind is different, so depending on what situation, conflict, or just interaction you are in, may always have a variety of approaches with each child. I believe just taking the time to understand the child can help in so many ways. Personal connections are important. I can be quick to adapt within my environments and would consider myself very open and flexible. I do have my CPR First Aid certification as well as my ICCHS & RRCAN certifications through Portland State.
