Hi! My name is Jocelyn, and I am an undergraduate senior at the University of Florida. Working with children has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and it truly is my passion. I have seven years of experience caring for children, including four years of paid experience, and I currently work as a pediatric medical assistant. In this position, I interact daily with children from birth to 19 years old, which has strengthened my ability to provide compassionate, attentive, and safe care. I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children grow and learn. I strive to create a positive, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel safe and encouraged to be themselves. I spent three years as a summer camp counselor working with children ages 4–13 from diverse backgrounds. This experience taught me how to manage groups, resolve conflicts, plan Read more engaging activities, and adapt to different personalities and needs. I have been CPR and First Aid certified for about six years now! Safety is always my top priority. I am patient, creative, and dependable, with strong communication and conflict-resolution skills. I am comfortable helping with homework, keeping children engaged in activities, and maintaining a clean and organized environment. Additionally, I plan to attend medical school to become a pediatric oncologist, which reflects my long-term dedication to working with and advocating for children.
