I have been babysitting my two younger brothers since they were born. With both parents working, I learned to love to be a caregiver at an early age. I grew up, not knowing exactly what I wanted to be, but knowing that I wanted to work with children. When I was in high school I would babysit for all of my teachers, and loved working with youth cheerleaders. For 1 year I worked as a licensed substitute teacher for grades K-8. I am currently attending college in order to become a licensed child therapist. I am currently a Preschool teacher, looking to relocate back home to Cleveland. I love working with children of all ages. I also enjoy making learning fun! I love to do arts and crafts, puzzles, and board games. I also love playing outside and I would definitely be able to help with homework. I love dogs, Read more and I would be okay in a home with cats too. I have successfully found two full-time jobs through Sittercity and would be able to provide my past employers as references.
