I am a college student who is home for the summer and I am looking for another job. I am a student at University of Illinois studying elementary education. I have been working with children for 8 years. I have babysat for my family, neighbors, and family friends since 2017. I was a dance teacher assistant for 6 years. I observed a pre-k classroom for about 5 months, and while I was away at college I was a daycare teacher. Our school had kids that were 6 weeks old all the way to two year olds. I had worked with all ages but I was mainly in a 2 year old classroom. Overall I have worked with many different ages, I am very comfortable changing diapers but I also know how to keep older kids entertained.
