I grew up in a big family and began learning how to care for babies at 10 years old! Today, I have 5 nieces and 4 nephews and I've loved every minute of it. I've enjoyed taking them to the park, playing games and doing crafts, and helping with their homework. They taught me at an early age that I love taking care of children. At 15, I also coached a PeeWee cheerleading team and a children's morning bowling league. In 2017, I graduated with a BA in NY where I grew up. Since then, I've had extensive experience working with all ages of children in various therapeutic settings. I've facilitated activities, assisted with daily living, maintained safety, and worked on strengthening skills supportive to their development. This is all with patience, compassion and understanding that each child is unique and needs individualized care. With a nurturing approach, I’ve been Read more committed to creating a safe, supportive & fun environment that fosters growth, learning & emotional well-being of children. I'm also certified in CPR and First Aid. Currently, I am a Behavior Technician for children with autism and although I have a passion for what I do, I'm excited to pivot my career towards other childcare settings. My experience also includes light housekeeping, laundry, food prep/meal times and naps or bedtimes. I have my own vehicle for any travel needs. :)
