• Comfortable with pets

I have a lot of experience working with children. Growing up, I would often watch my younger cousins and brother if my parents or aunts and uncles needed help. As a senior in high school I got my first official babysitting job watching a set of twins, one boy and one girl (age 8), and their older brother (age 10). During the summer we did many fun arts and craft activities, went to the pool and park, and created our own games around the house. I stayed with this family for a total of three summers. This past summer, I worked for a summer camp which had children ranging from kindergarten to sixth grade. I was in charge of 10-15 campers each week. I helped to prepare lesson plans, made sure they got proper snacks and lunch, chaperoned field trips, and built relationships with each member. Last spring, I graduated Read more from Penn State with a Bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies. I am currently a graduate student at Temple University in their Counseling Psychology program on track to get my certification as a school counselor. I have all of my necessary clearances to work with children since I must to a large amount of field work in order to graduate. Throughout my studies, I have gained a lot of knowledge on development of children and how to interact with them so that they will listen and understand.
