My name is Ruth and I am a Junior at the University of Central Arkansas. I am interviewing for a caregiver position in Conway, Arkansas. My love for children started when I was young and my family started to foster children. I was about 14 when I was given the opportunity to start watching over my siblings and foster siblings. I just loved the feeling of being around children, they have the brightest imaginations and always seem to put a smile on my face. Growing up with a single mother I was given a lot of responsibility in Childcare. I would watch the kids after school when my mother was at work by playing, feeding, and even helping them with homework. I never see watching children as a job but an opportunity to care for and inspire the next generation. My babysitting experience does range outside my own family, I Read more would often pick up kids from school and watch them until their parents got off of work. I also would volunteer at my church in the children's program and would offer after-school tutoring for children. I also would volunteer at my church in the children's program and offer after-school tutoring. The ages of children I have taken care of are ages 1-16. Most of my childcare has been a volunteer and I have experience with special needs kids. I have been around children my whole life and I have the experience to keep your children safe and nurtured in my care. Service Abilities: I can take care of date night supervising, afternoon care, overnight care, and pick up/drop off from school.
