I grew up taking care of children, including my family members and neighbors. I also completed a high school internship where I cared for children and helped teach positive values. Since starting college, I have continued gaining professional childcare experience by providing one-on-one care, planning fun and engaging activities, assisting with daily routines, and creating a safe, supportive environment for every child. I am patient, responsible, dependable, and passionate about helping children learn, grow, and have fun.I am also experienced and comfortable caring for children with disabilities, including ADHD and autism. For the past few years, I have worked professionally as a caregiver providing one-on-one support for children with diverse needs. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and adapting to each child’s unique personality and routines to help them feel safe, confident, and cared for.
