I began my journey as a caregiver at my Bible school study camp. I worked with infants and children ages 1-5. My hours were 9-5 Monday through Friday, I was in a classroom of 12 kids with 3 adults. Throughout the day we did group activities, in building field trips, lunch and snack time, and nap time, some days we would go outside on the playground. I also worked as a camp counselor/ swim instructor at the YMCA. As a camp counselor I worked with kids aged 4-8 5 days a week. We had organized activities throughout the day such as sports,crafts and games, and I taught swim lessons 3 times a day. On the weekends and after came I would give private swimming lessons to kids. Throughout all of my experience at the YMCA I was able to watch kids grow and develop skills, and I loved playing apart Read more of setting and accomplishing their goals. The second camp I was another camp counselor at was called kids after hours. This camp was a great expierence because we took elaborate field trips every other day. By being in charge of groups of kids in public taught me a lot about how important being able to communicate with kids is to keep everyone happy and safe. My most recent experience with childcare is that I was a regular babysitter for a family with 2 children. I would watch them when they had days off of school and on their parents date nights. We loved to play games around the house, go to the park, build forts and read. I cared for them by entertaining, cooking, cleaning up and making sure overall, that they felt safe and comfortable. I enjoy and am good at working in fast pace environments, I'm used to the unpredictable it keeps me on my feet. I also would be more then happy to help with light house keeping such as laundry, dishes, and just keeping things clean and organized!
