Hello! I'm a current college student at the University of Illinois at Springfield. I am studying Social Work with a minor in Child Advocacy. During the school year, I work at the campus daycare. For the past two years, I typically worked with infants to three years. I have experience with all ages and have volunteered at after school programs. For the past four years I have worked at The Centre of Elgin. I am a manager at the pool, I teach swim lessons, and have my first aid and CPR certification. I enjoy working with kids and am very artsy craftsy as well.
