About Donald

Experience: 8 yrs

With 16 years of experience nurturing young minds, I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development. My previous babysitting roles solidified my desire to positively impact children's lives. I'm patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, including verbal updates at pickup and regular texts. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and age-appropriate technology-based games with children. I am comfortable caring for up to 10 children aged 4 and older. I have some college education, Early Childhood Education (ECE), and Early Child Development Coursework. I am trained in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I also have experience with special needs children. I am happy to help with carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision. Having a car and being comfortable with pets allows me to be flexible and accommodating.

We hired Donny to assist for afterschool help for my 2 teenage/high school aged boys and he was a great match. He has experience as a school para and camp counselor and that was was I needed for the boys. He was able to help my younger son on checking his google classrooms and prioritizing school HW and assignments, he could pick up kids from school activities and had a lot of general knowledge especially helpful for teenage interests. Most importantly, he is very reliable and was flexible with scheduling afterschool on days that I had work meetings or business travel.
