A little bit about myself, I'm currently working at a salon where I work the desk and make appointments. When I was in high school I had 3 younger sisters at the time, 6 months- 8 years old. I would watch them every night after school. I would play with them, make dinner, help with any homework and then put them to bed. I eventually started babysitting my neighbors children, ages 2-9. I did mostly the same as I did for my siblings. Prepare meals for them play with them and make sure they are behaving. When it was time I would also put them to bed. After some time I started working with my aunts at an after school day care for a preschool. When I was working there I helped set up snacks and clean up. I would help with any homework problems, interact with the children. Report Read more any injuries or bullying of any kind. I love playing with the kids and forming a friendships with them. My craft skills are amazing and even though I'm not a pro at playing sports I'm always willing to do it for the kids. I do also have minimal experience with special needs children as I was an ABA Therapist in 2021
