My friends and family would describe me as extremely patient and kind, understanding of emotional and social needs, and problem solving and multi-tasking. I say this because I know that everyone works in different ways, and to be able to adapt to each and every person differently, you need to know how to understand them before you can help. My strength in working with kids is that I am very patient and understanding of their needs. I have always wanted to pursue a career with kids, when I was younger I always wanted to become a counselor for kids, then going into high school I wanted to become a labor and delivery nurse. Then coming out of high school I wanted to become an OBGYN, which is still my goal today. It has shown me that my greatest strength is simply caring and loving kids. I also excel in fast-paced Read more environments and multitasking, I love staying busy. I have been working for care.com for almost 6 months and I am open to finding a family that I can get to know more closely, since I have been strictly backup care since starting. I am also open to occasional date nights or simply time away from home!
