Hi! My name is Olivia and I am a college junior studying early childhood/childhood education! I have a strong passion for working with children of all ages and have made it my life's goal to not only work with children, but have an impact on them as well. I have spent hundreds of hours in classrooms working with multiple different grades and ages. I spent a year as a classroom volunteer for a kindergarten class, spending every day learning from the students and teaching them as well. I also worked in an after school program for grades 3-8 where I formed bonds with all the children and their families through planning activities, helping with homework and really getting to know the children. I have been babysitting for over 9 years now for many different families, including one family who I started with 9 years ago when they had one five Read more month old and have since seen through the care of their four children, now ages nine through 5. I spent last summer as a nanny for a family with children ages 10, 8 and 6. During that summer job I became a part of the family and loved every second of it! I organized and facilitated daily schedules for the children and planned activities and outings when there were not prescheduled extracurriculars. I absolutely love working with children in any capacity. I am a loyal person with a strong work ethic and a strong desire to succeed.
