Experience: 8 yrs
I am a 23-year-old who recently graduated with a B. A. in Psychology, from Lewis and Clark College in Portland Oregon. I have over 8 years of experience working with children. I enjoy facilitating activities which encourage play, creative expression and exploration of the environment. I have a driver's license with a clean record and reliable transportation by bike and car. My schedule and rate are both flexible. I am open to on call shifts as well as regular. I am willing to help out with any activities as well as errands and housekeeping. Please message me with any questions.
Alma is absolutely amazing -- our kids adore her, and are bouncing-off-the-walls excited whenever she comes over. She handles the chaos of a high-energy 7yo + 4yo twins + our cranky elderly dog with perfect calm and grace. She's kind, patient, and unflappable -- and always highly engaged. Alma babysat for us even when the twins were teeny tiny infants. Especially at that stage, there were very few people I trusted that could handle all three kiddos simultaneously.
