Hi to those reading! I'm 21 and I've been working with kids since I was 14. It started when I would babysit for my brother's wrestling coach. He and his wife had two sweet kids age 3 and 7. I have to say my first experience was overwhelming but I quickly learned I had a passion for working with kids. Once I was 16 I started driving downtown after school to work with Campus Clubs. It was a program in my town that provided homework assistance and day care activities to those who could not afford to pay for a nanny. I spent several years doing that but also continued working with kids when I applied for a job at a tutoring center called Kumon which is where I found a couple families who needed a nanny during the summer. I really had a blast playing outside with the kids Read more and taking them to the pool or movies. Since I have a history of being a tutor, I was also able to help each child with their homework and teach them new ways of looking at problems. That being said, if you have kids who need to be watched but also tutored, let me know because I love to teach. The following summer, I got a job at my old summer camp and had to keep track of up to 23 ten year old girls at a time for a whole month. AND it was an over night camp. I developed a whole new set of child care skills with that job. Also, if you have a child with any sort of special needs, I'm completely comfortable with that. I've completely lost hearing in one ear and had to have surgery to recover it so I a comfortable with deafness/hard-of-hearing. My father is a paraplegic so physical disabilities are familiar and I have family with learning difficulties and social anxieties that I have been able to help tutor. Any need you have, I'm sure I can rise to the occasion. I hope I can help you out. Thank you, Sydney
