Hello, My name is Raquel Medeiros and I absolutely love kids! I've been working at a Large Licensed Daycare for a little over a year now. Before that I nannied for a few families for a couple of years. I now have a total of 8 years of experience working with children. Thanks to all this wonderful experience I've had with these jobs, I've now worked with all ages between newborns (about 5 month olds) and up to 13 year olds; with up to 8 kids at once in my care alone. This has given me the qualification to multitask well with children if needed. I love giving children my undivided attention to show them the love, care and support they deserve. Working with kids and youth is my passion as I started doing this at a young age. I began babysitting other children when I was 13 years old Read more and continued throughout high school. As a junior and senior in high school I was involved in a program called Youth Educator Program where I was trained on how to teach kids and young teens on how to prevent from using drugs and alcohol. I then taught middle school classes lessons on this. During my first year of college I was in a program called Camp Adventure where I trained at Sacramento State and UC Davis on how to be a camp counselor for kids who live on military bases outside of the country. All of this experience has inspired me to eventually become a motivational speaker for children and teens around the world after I get my doctorate in psychology to help make a positive difference in a child's life. I love teaching children new things, learning new things from them and just making their lives happy as they make mine happy. I love playing sports, reading, games indoor and outdoor, arts and crafts or anything fun. I also have the qualifications to teach swim lessons and dance lessons. I have my Lifeguard, First Aid and CPR certification. I have many years of experience and would love to continue the journey of working with children for the rest of my life. I am also willing to meet the needs of errands, housekeeping, homework, cooking, or any pet care that you have. Overall I think getting a chance to work with kids is an amazing opportunity because I am always excited to go to work, the days are filled with laughter, and even through the hard days we grow and learn together with lots of love and support. If you have any other questions I would be more than happy to answer them for you. I look forward to hearing from you! -Raquel Medeiros
