I have been caring for children for 10+ years. I currently employed by an Elementary school as a special education aide. Previously I have worked in daycares, and was a lead teacher in a two year old classroom. I currently am taking college classes through a local community college. My dream job would be to become a kindergarten teacher. Over the summer I babysit full time, in total I have 5 families I watch monday-Friday. I have my first and CPR certification, as well as all my clearances. I am involved in theatre, I teach drama camps to children ages 5-7. I perform in local theatre productions. I coach a youth cheerleading team, that is made up of children grades 2nd-6th. I have taught dance before, I love the arts. I enjoy singing, dancing, and acting. I have three nephews and one niece, that I adore and love. I have Read more taken care of children ranging from newborn to middle school. I enjoy going on outings, teaching, making sure that the children feel loved and well taken care of. I truly have a love and passion for taking care of children. I am with them all day at work, and most evenings I am either with them at a theatre event or babysitting.
