I started babysitting when I was 12 yrs old. I've worked in the baby room for the Maize Methodist Church for a summer while also babysitting for my basketball coach when I was 15. I loved working in a childcare facility so I started working with my church and would do side jobs every weekend. I had my first full time babysitting job when I turned 16 and was responsible for driving kids to and from activities and providing them with balanced meals while also keeping them entertained and educated. I started working for the Maize USD 266 transportation when I was 18 as a Para on a special education bus and that's when I decided I wanted to be a special education teacher. I was then moved to bus driver after 2 years of working and also got a job as a lunch Para for Maize South Elementary. I Read more have always loved kids but have none of my own so babysitting gives me the opportunity to spend that time I crave with children. I have experience with newborns up to 16 year old children. I am CPR and first aid trained and also have my Food Handlers Card. Working at a transportation office I was required to go through physicals every year and defensive driving. I do not have a vehicle at the moment due to my car breaking down but I do have a reliable source of transportation as far as getting to and from work. I am available at any time day or night since I quit my transportation job a couple years ago to help my family open a restaurant and ended up staying longer than I thought but I'm ready to go back to working with children since it will help with my career and its what I love. If there is any other information you would like feel free to ask!! I am looking forward to meeting you and can't wait to spend time with you little one!!
