I grew up around kids and doing little babysitting jobs around my neighborhood and for family friends. I have also done pet sitting. A couple summers ago I was a swim instructor/teacher for kids ages 2-5 and I am also currently a caregiver. I am enrolled at Chemeketa Community College and am still in my first year and I’ve taken a few classes that have involved children growth, development, behavior and learning (psychology and sociology). I am also currently taking an educational psychology class. I don’t necessarily have qualifications specifically for caregiving, however, I have been trained in CPR and first aid.
I graduated from South Salem High School and took a college psychology class that involved children development my senior year. My first term of college I took a sociology class that also went over children growth, learning and development along with a delinquency class.
