Hello, My name is Maureen Martin. I am 21 years old and am a Psychology and Physics major at Southern Methodist University. I have always loved learning about infant care and development and volunteered in the Doctor's Hospital maternity ward through all 4 years of high-school and my first year of college. In order to work at Doctor's as an official volunteer, I took an 8 week course specifically to learn more about infant care (0-18 months) and am now what I like to call "baby certified" (includes CPR certification). Not only will I provide love and care to your infant, but I will note and help cultivate the vital developmental skills that an infant learns in their first year and a half (giving you weekly updates). I would be happy to discuss the physical, social, and cognitive milestones in this important initial stage of an individuals life. I also Read more have extensive experience caring for my two young cousins and infants at an orphanage in Honduras (photo attached). I miss the amazing experience of caring for an infant (Doctor's hospital is too far from SMU) and would love to have the opportunity to help in anyway I can. I do not have my own car but I use the Uber car service to and from school every day; the same would apply to the location. (I pay for the service) I am comfortable with dogs but allergic to cats. All other pets are perfectly fine. My schedule is flexible! I work mornings at Fondren Library at SMU and am not taking too many hours this semester so I will work around your needs! To clarify, I wish to work with children 0-18 months old, as that age is what I have been trained for. Working with one child is preferable but two is absolutely fine. My other work experience includes working at my parents law firm during the summer. In my references, I put my current boss at the library, and the former volunteer coordinator at Doctor's Hospital; Caitlin Maxwell. I have more references if needed. please email with any further questions!
