In Aspen for the month of January. In the lasted, I’ve lived in Aspen and worked for Aspen Ski Co, now I am here on vacation for the month. In the summer, I am an Adventures Guide for Adventures by Disney, where I take families, with children of all ages, on Guided Tours around the world. I previously worked for a family, on a private yacht, where I watched their children and assisted with anything they needed. I was a Youth Activities Counselor for Disney Cruise Line for a little over a year. I then transferred to Family and Adult Entertainment where I currently work as Cruise Staff for Disney Cruise Line. I have worked for Disney Cruise Line for two years and have loved every second of it! I am trusted by the Walt Disney Company as well as parents to take care of their children and make their Read more cruise experience as magical as possible. I worked in the nursery with ages 6months - 3 years old, the kids club where I watched children ages 3-12 as well as the tween club where I hangout/watch kids ages 10-14. It's an absolute blast and I think I have the best job on the planet because kids truly are hilarious and awesome. Working as Cruise Staff, I entertain families from hosting game shows, to crafts, karaoke, trivias, outdoor activities and sports and much more. I have a positive attitude and a great sense of humor. I really enjoy working with children. Last year I worked at a childcare center where I care for newborns, pre-k and every age in between. I was in charge of diaper changes, naps, feedings, afternoon activities, snack time, and keeping the children occupied. I am trustworthy, creative and very enthusiastic. The parents trust me to care for their most prized possession. Two summers ago, I babysat two different families. One family had 4 boys, all under the age of 10, and the other family had 2 boys under the age of 7. I had to take them to swimming lessons and take care of them for 10 hours at a time. I also babysat a different family during the school year, with 2 boys and 1 girl, all under the age of 11.
