I am an experienced and compassionate individual with a background in babysitting and providing care for children of various ages. My skills in patience, communication, and creativity have allowed me to create safe and engaging environments. Additionally, I have formal training as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), which has equipped me with techniques for working effectively with children, especially those with behavioral challenges and disabilities. I am also certified in CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS), ensuring I am prepared to respond to emergencies. I am in the final stages of my master's program in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Richmont Graduate University, with graduation expected in May. My academic background, combined with hands-on experience, reflects my dedication to both personal development and supporting the well-being of others.
