I started babysitting at the age of 12 and have always worked with or watched children. More specifically, I have worked with children with special needs (specifically autism) for the past 8 years in and outside of schools and at home. It is the most rewarding job anyone could ever have!

My husband and I just moved to the Bay Area from Syracuse, New York in early July. I am a 29-year-old Graduate Assistant and student. I currently work as a part-time caregiver for a family in Oakland, so I am only looking for one-time/occasional work on the days/nights when I am not working with that family or occasional weekend work.

I have worked in public and private schools, summer camps, after-school programs, and independent tutoring. I don't work with one specific age group. I've taught at a nursery/pre-k school, taught elementary school art, tutored 1st to 2nd graders (English or Spanish), worked as a one-on-one Para Educator for autistic children, and coached middle school cheer leading.

I have always worked in education in some way. Although my degree is in Women's and Gender Studies, and Sociology, I know I will always work with children with or without special needs. I am outgoing, friendly, and love the outdoors! I don't mind being around pets. I would prefer to work out of your home. I don't mind errands or light housework for higher pay.
