Hi I’m Dena! I’m currently 19yrs old and attending Boston University! I love working with children and aim to be a child psychologist after all my schooling. I worked with children many times, especially kids with special needs. I’m also licensed with my own car, and can easily drive if needed. I am a proficient cook, and can also cater to special dietary needs. I’m a fun, compassionate, and easy going person who can withstand high amounts of stress. Here’s a list of my prior experience working with children: -teachers aid to first graders at Moriah Family school -tutor to children on the south side of Chicago through Bright Star Church and YOU tutoring -staff member at a weekend retreat for 4-7th graders Moriah Family school -Camp counselor for girls age 10-11 at Ramah Wisconsin overnight -Counselor in training for kids with special needs at Ramah Wisconsin -Volunteer at Shalva, Read more organization for kids with special needs, working with girls age 6-7 Though I am not cpr certified, I have taken numerous classes and know the correct procedures I’m so excited to potentially work with your children and build important connections!
