From ages 8 until now (21) I've helped my siblings take care of their kids (I have 4 nieces and 4 nephews!) which has given me experience in watching over kids from infants to teenagers. When I was 16 and 17 I worked at a summer camp in Nevada City and watched up to 10 kids at a time. During current summers, I work at a Girl Scout Summer Camp in they bay area and watch up to 20 children at a time with help from other camp counselors. I have experience with meal times, bedtimes, nap times, basic homework help, entertainment, diaper changing, I have a car and I am CPR certified, first aid certified and am a mandated reporter in the state of California. As someone who is aiming to be a Child Psychologist as he career, I have such a strong love for the wellbeing of children and making sure they have a safe, happy childhood. If you're looking for someone willing to get on her hands and knees and pretend to be a bear for hours and someone who is also willing to teach kindness and compassion, then I'm your girl!
I'm currently an undergrad student at Chico State and am a Psychology Major and a Child Development Minor with hopes to be a child psychologist.
