Since I was twelve years old, I have been working with children of all ages. I began as a volunteer for the nursery in my church, then was hired at 13 to be the caregiver for the preschool age children. At 15, I began babysitting for parents in the church, and then their friends and family as well. At 17, I was promoted by the church to Lead Teacher of the nursery. At 18, I was hired by Sunbrook Academy to work in all classrooms. I have provided care for children of all ages, from newborn to preteen. I have been trained in First Aid Safety, CPR, and Safe Sanctuary. I have experience with children that have specific medical needs, dietary restrictions, learning disabilities, severe allergies, ADHD, separation anxiety, diabetes, and behavioral issues. I can cook, clean, help with school work, run errands, and administer medicine if needed. I am Read more an animal lover, and can also provide pet care. I am comfortable with one on one care, or caring for a large group of children. While in my care, I enjoy doing activities with the children such as crafts, games, playing outside, or completing a project such as chores, or school work. My approach to working with children is unique because I believe that children are teachers in and of themselves, and if you just listen and pay attention to them, you learn just as much, if not more, than you teach them. I have learned something from every single child I have interacted with, and look forward to learning more.
