Hello! New to site but here are just a few quick things about me :) I will be relocating to Charleston SC from my small hometown in Va towards the beginning of May. Will be new to the area, but extremely excited to start my new journey in such a beautiful place. I'm looking to start full-time soon after my move. I've always had a passion for working with children and grew up caring for younger siblings. During undergrad I worked towards becoming an elementary teacher before changing my major to psychology. I've worked with many different age groups and enjoy interactive activities that are not only fun, but also engage children as individuals. I love arts and crafts and spending a lot of time outdoors! I have a very fun energetic personality and always take my responsibilities very seriously. Pets are welcome to join as well. Eventually would like Read more to start working on my masters in early child development. Full resume and references are open for the public to view on Indeed. com. Willing to undergo background check etc with serious inquires. I have listed two of the main families I have babysat for over the years on this site. If they do not respond by email calling is fine too! Please feel free to contact me with any questions via phone call, text, or email I look forward to hearing from you! -Younger brother is special needs (10+ years) -Throughout my high school career I babysat for various neighbors and teachers in my community (6+ years) ages ranging 3-12 years. -While enrolled in college I was employed by Busy Little Bees Child Development Center working with children 2-5 years of age. -I also worked as an unpaid intern as a teachers assistant for grade K-2nd at Meadowview Elementary school (6 months). -During undergrad I also worked as a student teacher at EB Middle School for 7th grade history (6 months). -Upon graduating I worked as a therapeutic day time treatment counselor at Marion Middle School for 7th grade (1. 5 years). -Over the years I have continued to babysit part time for local couples in my community when I have spare time.
