About Madelyn

I like working with kids because they bring out the kid in me. Kids are curious, energetic, and eager to learn. We can see the world through a different lenses when we're around kids. I'm looking for a job that needs me once or twice a week for 4-6 hours. I started working with kids when I was 16. I would babysit my neighbors and take care of my youngest sibling. I when I was 20, I lived with my cousin for 1. 5 years and helped care for her new born son. Feeding him, changing diapers, going for walks, etc. When I was 26, I again lived with the same cousin who had a 5-year-old, 2-year-old and new born. I lived with them for 2 years helping care for the kids. In my spare time, I like to hike, read, cuddle my puppy, organize, volunteer at a women's home caring for their infants. One thing you should know about me is I am patient. I have a strong ability to make the child feel safe and heard. My skills include sensitivity, communication, empathy
