Hi! I am a very patient and compassionate person who loves working with children. I care very much about safety and am alert and attentive when around children. I am a SJSU graduate (Psychology), and have 5 years experience with special needs kiddos (specifically Autism) as a Behavior Therapist! I have experience babysitting elementary and middle school aged children. I can facilitate play, sit with the child for homework, encourage the child to complete chores, facilitate meal time and bed time, and can do pretty much anything asked of me. I enjoy music and sports, and love outdoors activities. I have years of experience engaging children in play with toys, games, pretend play, etc. I am competent in written English and have the basic proficiencies required to help young children with homework of any subject. I am patient and have experience creating a learning environment, establishing motivation, and maintaining a Read more consistent expectation with children.
