Starting at age 16, I began working as a childcare provider at a small daycare center. I started mainly working with kid’s ages 4-12 years old. During the summer I would supervise field trips and activities in the center. Following the summer, I was moved to the toddler room where I was responsible for the care of 7 toddlers, ages 2-3 years old. With the toddlers, my responsibilities included: putting them down for naps, initiating/keeping a potty training routine, readings, providing snacks and planning activities to do in the afternoons after naptime. During the summer when I was attending CSU, I started teaching swim lessons. Throughout the day, I would teach lessons to the camp kids, ages progressed throughout the day from ages 4-12. In the evenings, when I did personal lessons, I mainly taught parent-infant and parent-toddler classes where I introduced kids to the water and submerging their heads Read more by playing games and singing songs. I thoroughly enjoy spending time with kids. I have continued to babysit since college. I am currently attending school to finish obtaining prerequisite courses so I can apply to PA (physician assistant) school in April. I fell in love with medicine after spending 2 years working in a cardiology office! With that being said, I am BLS and CPR certified. I am also a certified Lifeguard with additional water safety certificates. I am responsible, trusting, honest, kind, on time and hard-working.
