I grew up in foster care, where younger children were present the majority of the time in my household. I have loved being around kids since a young age; nothing brightens my day more than that. Ever since I started babysitting at age 12, I realized that working with children is my strong suit. It is what I am good at, and it is what I love. I have worked with many children; most recently I babysat a 3 year old girl, multiple days a week, for the past year - up until her parents had another child and no longer needed childcare from me. I am looking for a new job working with kids; I do not have official certification, but I do have years of experience working with kids of all ages - it is one of my greatest passions. I am bubbly, energetic, imaginative, creative, artistic, loving, Read more caring, and I am very skilled at dealing with redirecting children in an effective manner when discipline is needed. I am skilled with communication and problem-solving. I am trustworthy, I am a fast-learner, I have great people skills, and I am extremely flexible. I am currently in the process of finishing my high school diploma, but for the most part I am available to work almost any hours. I would prefer full time but I'm willing to work part time as well. I also am dedicated to making sure the person I am working for is as comfortable with me as possible and I realize the importance in that. I do have transportation. I am very open and flexible as I said, and I always can be reached by phone.
