I have lived in Springfield, Virginia (more specifically West Springfield) my entire life with my parents and two sisters, one older and one younger. I went to West Springfield Elementary, Washington Irving Middle School, and then graduated with an advanced diploma at West Springfield High School in 2011. I am currently finishing up my associates degree at NVCC and transferring to George Mason next fall to pursue a Bachelor's in Social Work and then hopefully a Master's as well. I have worked with children of many ages for over 10 years. I have been a personal nanny, babysitter, and worked for Fairfax County at various elementary schools around the county as a SACC Teacher, which is their extended stay program after schools. I have participated in multiple training sessions through out my time working with SACC. This training was to learn how to best effectively do my job and help Read more the children build self esteem and other necessary life skills while maintaining and positive and fun environment. I am able to identify when a child is struggling, and know the professional way of how to address it. My main priority is your child/children's safety, closely followed by fun! My personal characteristics include, but not limited to, great work ethic, a desire to help, outgoing personality, great communication skills, good sense of humor, and a positive attitude. I enjoy arts and crafts, outdoors, and just relaxing with a good movie! I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I hope I get the opportunity to help any family out that could use some extra hands and time, everyone deserves a break now and again.
