Hi , my name is MICHAELA I love working w kids because kids are simply just a joy to be around some say because I haven’t had my own, even tho that may be true. When I turned 18 I started working w kids at a daycare I loved working w them and being around them we had so much fun and they loved Ms Michaela and vice versa I also became a summer camp teacher and just seeing all the kids made me so happy. What sets me apart from other people is that I’m young but I can also connect w kids. Doesn’t matter the age I can adjust to different personalities because we all have them. Different personalities I mean. I can connect and also still remain the “Adult” in any situation. Children of all ages are tough but I believe once you can connect with they’ll Read more be more willing to listen, understand , and maybe even be open to talk when they’re not used too. I love keeping parents in the loop as well. I know if I were a mother I wouldn’t want to seem overbearing but I still want pictures and videos and daily updates about my child when I’m not around to keep that trust between us as well.
