I worked in childcare for year. Now I was only 18 at the time but boy did I learn a lot. I went to worksop/trainings, learned how to adjust accordingly to ever parents/child's needs, and somehow managed 6 toddler boys all by myself. I am now 19 years old and find myself greatly missing the kids and seeing their faces everyday. This lead me to come back to babysitting and helping families when they are short on a helping hand. Some important factors I wish for parents to consider 1. I am fluent in ASL and majoring in Deaf Education at Baylor University. 2. I owned a great pyrenees mix who sheds all year. While I try my best to avoid tracking dog hair in my car or someone else's home its impossible to catch everything. Please note this when viewing my profile. 3. While I do have some training Read more and experience working with Autistic children, it is preferred to work with special needs with strictly one child. When taking care of special needs I have learned its best to have one on one attention and to avoid overwhelming the caretaker.
