I am a caring and reliable individual who has a joy and paid experience as a caregiver/nanny. I have paid experience with caring for children, children with autism/special needs and senior care. I have worked as Starvos employee for child with non verbal autism for six years and have worked as TLC for Kids employee to provide care to children and seniors. I have helped with personal care needs, transportation, routine preparation, engaging both seniors and children in fun activities. I am creative, reliable, and caring. I am CPR and first aid certified and have experience in therapy for children and families as well. I have gone to school to attain a Masters of Social work and have been an individual/family therapist with a focus on children/families. During sessions, my duties were to work on social skills, daily living skills (potty training, chores, hygiene), working of expression of emotions, etc. Read more I love to engage with children and provide reliable care through discussion of parents to try to maintain routine, family rules and child's likes and dislikes to personalize care. I like to bring 'babysitter bag' to each job with fun activities for working with children (books, toys, puzzles, crafts, games) which are age appropriate.
