Hello! A bit of background: I have a two-year-old niece and a one-year-old nephew who I cannot get enough of. They live in Austin, but I try to get down there when I can to A. see them and B. give mom and dad a much needed staycation. The little girl is an entertainer and makes friends with everyone, and the little boy is loving and reserved. I'm pretty good at making them laugh. It might be because we are related, but I'd like to think there is some sort of intuition needed. I used to throw parties at Chuck E. Cheese and volunteer right now for The Birthday Party Project, so that might help. If you haven't heard of The Birthday Party Project, check it out. It's a great organization. We throw birthday parties for kids that are in temporary housing. Some of them are a bit timid, depending Read more on their situation, but I've found that if you let them approach you, they will eventually open up. During the last school year, I volunteered as a reading tutor at a local elementary school. I tutored a bit in college, as well, so I can help with homework. I work from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I'm saving up for grad school at the moment, so any jobs are much appreciated! Let me know if you think I'd be a good fit.
