I am very friendly and love taking my time to share and create memories with children at any age. I was employed at a child care facility that unfortunately had to close due to the world's pandemic. I have experience in caring for children from infants to pre-school children. I would care for them when I was a child care teachers aide earlier this year. My tasks included, making snack, changing diapers (when caring for the infants group), making lessons for the month, creating projects for several subjects, and working with the preschool classroom so that we knew that the 5/6 year old were ready for kindergarten. We had the children do tasks that would challenge their minds and have them work with one another to accomplish the task together. Before working in child care, I would car for my younger siblings. They are 15 and 12 now but when Read more they were younger, I’d care for them like changing their diaper, feeding them and at times putting them to bed for naps. I’m an upbeat person, looking for a family who will not only employ me but also challenge me so that I am able to further my career. I’m also beginning school again in mid January, I do plan to be working and going to school full-time.
