Hi! I am a 28-year-old graduate student at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science. I graduated from Lehigh University in Pennsylvania with my bachelor's degree in Psychology and a minor in Spanish in 2008. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old and I have experience working with children of all ages. In the past, I worked full-time as an autism therapist and I was responsible for implementing behavioral plans for children who had autism. I have experience with many other special needs as well. I also worked as a teacher for a 2-year-old class at a local preschool. I worked as a day camp counselor for 8 years. I am a lifetime member of the Girl Scouts and earned the Gold Award in 2002. Since then, I have been volunteering as a Girl Scout Leader for kindergarten and 1st grade troops. I am a friendly, creative, energetic caregiver. I believe that children learn the most through play - I am not the type of caregiver that will just let the children watch TV all day. My main goal is to keep your children safe while having fun!
