I have been working in childcare for about 10 years now. I have two younger siblings who were born after I was 12 and I spent my teenage years caring for them as my own because our parents were unfit. I worked at a catholic daycare for three years, until I moved onto the YMCA infant room, where I cared for 5 babies under 2 years old at one time. While taxing, this job was also rewarding because I was the highlight of these young minds day. I babysat for their parents on the weekends and made great report with every family. I have my CPR training and mandated reporter training completed as well as my childline background check. All available upon request. I was a nanny for a 5 month old girl for about 8 months until she began daycare. I have taken care of my nephew and younger Read more cousins during family outings. I always have some activities for the young ones to do and keep them occupied. I am wonderful with kids and will make a great asset to your family! Thank you so much for your time. And yes, I have my flu shot, COVID vaccine and have an updated negative tuberculosis test as of 09/27/2023 I used to own a car but it’s been in the shop for two months and I haven’t had the money to get it fixed so unfortunately I will not have my own vehicle however I am in MANAYUNK/ROXBOROUGH area and will be willing to use public transportation to travel to you!
