Meet Shakira

Hi! My name is Shakira Wheeler and I am 24 years old. I currently attend Manhattanville College and I plan to earn my BA in psychology. I also take classes at Westchester Community College. I have been babysitting since I was 16 years old. I currently work as a daycare teachers assistant. I work with children 6 weeks old to 5 years old. I have been at this daycare for almost a year and a half and I absolutely love it. I love trying to incorporate the things I loved doing as child in my interactions with other children. I am a big arts and crafts lover and reading to children is something I strongly believe in. I love music and believe that music helps children express themselves. I am CPR/First Aid certified and I also have many other trainings in other areas in regards to child care. I am Read more a hardworker and always give 100% no matter the situation. I believe that childcare is important because we are shaping the little humans of the future. It means a lot to me that I can be apart of the process. I also have great communication skills and parents tend to come to me when it comes to their children because they feel comfortable. And to top it off, the kids love me!
