Hi! My name is Jade Whiting, I'm a junior at Ferris State University, studying criminal justice for my bachelors, then hopefully on to a masters in Social Work. I've babysat my for many family's throughout my teenage years of all ages and I'm experienced with special needs. I'm fun and love to play games with kids. Just putting a smile on a kid's face gives me happiness. I spent the entire summer, last year, working at the children's Boys and Girls Club as a Teen Development Professional where I tough lessons to the kids in the center as well as chaperoned field trips. Also, over the past years I have been a tutor for many younger kids between helping with project, teaching them math, and peer review essays. Lastly, I have had CPR, First Aid, Lifeguard, and AED training. I'm fun and love to play games and interact with the Read more kids. I'm available to watch your kiddos starting December 15th and have completely open availability (even holidays) . Please feel free to email me at whitinj4@ferris.edu if you would like to get in contact. Also, I will be in Dekalb this weekend (November 15-18) if you would like to meet, if possible.
