Hello! I am a former preschool assistant teacher (through private programs as well as LESA) who has taken CDA/Early childhood courses (online CDA, going for my Associates in Early Childhood Education through Mott Community College). I currently work at my local junior high school. I also have special needs experience through ABA and LESA. I love working with kids of all ages, and I joke that I'm often "the biggest kid in the room". Depending on payrate, I can either "hang out" with the kids (keep them alive, play games, feed snacks or premade food/takeout, more in the line of 'babysitting') up to acting as more of a "nanny" (make lesson plans, prepare food, etc.) - this depends on payrate. Pets I am expected to care for/watch/walk are an extra $15 per sitting session (NOT per hour).
