I am currently a third year college student studying Psychology and Equine Assisted Therapy. While I am at college I am a Resident Assistant in my building which has allowed me to enhance my leadership and programming skills with freshmen college students. I have also had extensive experience with children because I was a camp counselor during the past summer months. The camp that I was employed at provided week long camps for children between the ages of 6 and 15. I have worked as a nanny before as well caring full time for four children between the ages of 9 and 12. I come from a large family, and helped my mother raise my three siblings who are much younger than I am. I am AED certified, First Aid certified and a certified red cross lifeguard. I am also trained in Equine Assisted Therapy, working with children who have Read more developmental issues. I have a positive outlook on life, and I am trustworthy.

I would absolutely not recommend Alyssa. The only reason I gave her a star is because you have to. I would have prefered to leave that part blank. We hired her and she backed out on us the very first night. She waited until the time I needed to be at work to cancel on me. I find her to be very irresponsible and I feel she has a lot of growing up to do. If you want someone to leave you high and dry then she's just the person for the job.
