Hello! I am currently employed as a full time optician at the Museum District Eye Center, as well as a student taking online courses this semester, however, my schedule for the afternoon & weekends are extremely flexible. I have cared for children since the day I became a big sister. Every day after school, as opposed to my mother having to hire someone to have to care for us while she was at work, I would step in and prepare food for my sisters and I, as well as clean up around the house. I was around 13 when my parents would leave me to care for my sisters on the weekends on my own, and on occassion, my aunts and uncles also would ask me to step in on their date nights and care for my baby cousins as well. I'm a dedicated worker and am a natural when Read more it comes to children. I enjoy playing games, both fun and educational. I don't mind cooking nor cleaning messes and pets are not an issue either considering I've cared for many pets too, from fish, to puppies, to kittens! I enjoy teaching too. If there's a certain area you would like your child to excel in or begin to learn, I have no problem helping them to get there!
