EDUCATION Currently Enrolled at Shoreline Community College, Shoreline, WA Currently Studies: Professional and System Responses, Early Childhood Curriculum Development, High School Diploma, 2014 Sehome High School - Bellingham, WA WORK EXPERIENCE Live-in Nanny Aug 2014 – Dec 2015 Private Family Lake Forest Park, WA I worked as a live-in Nanny providing before and after school care to five children (ages newborn, 2, 4, 5 & 7) three of which were foster children who had been removed from their birth families by social services. I was able to be a loving companion to all of the children helping to meet their physical, emotional, social and intellectual needs. This situation requires particularly careful support to the children, especially during the time following the visits with their birth families. In order to work in this environment I was required to obtain special clearance from the department of family services. Summer Camp Counselor June Read more 2014 to Aug 2014 The Salvation Army Camp Arnold, Eatonville, WA I provided daily care, guidance and supervision for a group of 8 - 12 campers with responsibility for their safety, health, program involvement and spiritual development. I also prepared group games, team building activities, elective classes and daily devotional times for the campers. Musical Theater July 2015 I was the assistant director/stage manager of the production “Annie”. While assisting I kept a detailed prompt book that I needed to keep updated with changes the director mentioned during rehearsals. I communicated between the actors, the back stage staff and the director and helped organize the rehearsal scheduling for the week.
