I have over 10 years of childcare experience. I began as a mothers helper in my neighborhood, and have worked as a daycare assistant, volunteer, swim instructor, daycamp counselor, birthday party helper.... you name it, I've just about done it.... but it doesn't stop there!! I also help families with family vacations, holidays, overnights, tutoring, cleaning, helping around the house with food shopping, running errands, baking, bringing kids to fun places during long days together... I have 3-5 years experience speaking Spanish and French (not fluent and have not used it recently, so its a bit rusty) I love arts and crafts and I love to be outside (when the weather is nice) I love animals and love cooking. I will be graduating in January 2013 and looking for a full childcare position until May, and would love to start building a relationship with a caring family now or just take up a part-time gig temporarily. I will be graduating with an Organizational and Community Leadership Major and a Minor in Human Development and Family Studies (involving a lot of Child Development and Education classes) I will also be certified in Sustainable Hospitality and Business Administration. I currently as President of the event planning club on campus and advocate various topics of importance on a college campus. I am a dedicated student, but would love to help you out on weekends. I believe I am very mature for my age, but am a kid at heart and am not afraid to get dirty. Building dependable relationships with the kids I care for is very important to me, and I love watching them learn and grow. I want kids to be comfortable with me, trust me, look forward to me coming over, and most importantly have fun when they are in my care. A good babysitter is loving and trustworthy like a sibling, fun like a friend, but the kids still know they should not take advantage of this relationship with trying to break the rules. I look forward to hearing from you and getting to know your family! (My travel distance is temporary and my rate depends on duties of kids, but is negotiable)
