ive been a babysitter for over 7 years. I first started baby sitting at 15 or 16 and quickly found out I had a passion for it. I loved working with small children and seeing the grow to be such bubbly kids with different personalities.
I have certification in CPR/First aid and AED training for babies and adults. I am an avid swimmer so if anyone has a pool, I am willing to get in and teach them to swim for the summers or just simply watch them attentively. Im an active listener and take my time to know each and every one of the kids in the household. I have no problem with playing and getting down on their level to build a bond with them. I went to school for medical assisting so I know how to help during a medical emergency if ever there was one. I am currently learning spanish and sign language again just incase I get a parent that want to teach their child.
My last job prior was working with toddlers {1-4} students with learning to write their names as well as learning their letters and the alphabet and basic understanding of phonics and other fun creative drawing activities once they would be done with their curriculum. Then I would go outside and let them have some outside time on good days when the weather was great out. For the after schoolers {5-13} I would help with their homework in science, English, and math. then after it was completed. I would let them enjoy their own activities indoors like checkers, uno and other board games or outdoors on their bikes, skateboard, etc while watching them play. after a while, we'd come in and I would prepare lunch and sit and wait until they were done to clean up the dishes and any living space that needed cleaning. once i was done with that id monitor what they were watching and get ready for their parents to come and pick them up.
I look forward to working with and helping families!
Thank you,
