I worked with a child with Asperger's syndrome with his homework as he found it hard to grasp things alone. I was always a good student A's and B's through graduation and look forward to helping your child. I think a rewarding job such as a tutor is the best kind of job to have.

$12-17/hr1 yrs exp

I've been professionally watching animals for a year. However I've been around them and watched them non-professionally for a couple years. I'm very responsible and trustworthy. Any animal I take care of I treat like they are my own.
I have a great love for kids! I've worked as an ABA therapist with children, as well as the Kids unit at Covington Behavioral Health. I would love to move out of the healthcare field and into working as a babysitter/nanny while I prepare to have children myself.
