I graduated from college with a psychology major, education minor. I am very experienced when it comes to working with children. I have been babysitting for about 7 years (all ages), I worked as an assistant teacher in a 2nd grade classroom for 4 years, I coached a girls town soccer team for 3, and I currently work at the Boys and Girls club as well as 1 on 1 with severely autistic children. I have a lot of energy that I feel is perfect when it comes to handling children. I'm passionate about working with kids so it is important to me that I can make a connection with the child(red)! I love to go outside and be active. I also enjoy games as well as arts and crafts. I encourage independence and creativity, as well as an open imagination. I would be more than happy to help with Read more any household chores and can cook/prep light meals if needed. I am also very animal friendly, however I am pretty allergic to cats so that would be open for discussion!
