I have several years of experience caring for children through babysitting, volunteering, and mentoring. I have helped care for my younger brother, who is autistic, which has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to meet each child’s individual needs. I’ve also volunteered with children through my church and community programs, served as a summer camp counselor for three summers, and mentored younger students as a Speech & Debate team captain. As a pre-med student, I value creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable. I am responsible, dependable, and enjoy building positive relationships with both children and parents.
