Hi , I’m Alyssa I’m 20 years old and I became a caregiver because I love children and I feel like you can teach and learn from every child. I just love to see how much you can watch and help a child grow into an amazing person. I’ve been babysitting since I was around 7 years old when I started it was just babies around 3 months to a year. As I got older I would watched children around ages new born to 14 years old. I usually do activities and games to keep the children entertained but I also complete the instructions the parent leave for me. I recently worked at a daycare called “The Learning Experience” but I had to leave due to a family emergency. Here are some of my non-babysitting experiences that has to do with younger children. Volunteered at daycare September 2007 - January Read more 2010 Helped my mother make lesson/ activity plan for the day Watched children during nap time and play time, helped prepare and clean up lunch and snack time Took children on walks when they misbehaved to have them calm down Set up the room for each celebrations we had for the children Volunteered with preschool children after school August 2013 - June 2014 Made sure children played nicely with each other, helped them use the restroom, and made sure all of their items where put away on their book bags for pickup Helped clean and organize the room once ever child has gone home School Orientation August 2014 - 2016 Organized schedules and papers for each student Lead tours of the new building
