Hi my name is Charmaine. I am currently a high school student with hands-on experience working and caring children. I currently help with my 2 year old sister daily, which has helped teach me patience, responsibility, and overall care for toddlers.This summer I completed a five-week children’s summer camp program where I led each class with planned activities, organized arts and crafts, while going over expectations of a safe and enjoyable environment. I also completed an internship working at a daycare working with 2 to 3 year olds. I gained a valuable experience supporting teachers and interacting with the children.I am highly organized, productive, and detail oriented with strong communication skills. I enjoy building positive relationships with both children and adults. My goal is creating a fun, safe, engaging environment for every kid in my care. Working with young children has strengthened my passion for child care. I hope to continue to work with children in the future as I want to pursue a positive impact for kids and their future.Thank you for reading !
