A little bit about me

I currently work as a CNA and an overnight nanny on occasion. I love to crochet, play board games, read, cook and have fun. I am very family oriented and love animals. I love being outside as much as possible as long as the weather allows. Crocheting has brought out a lot of my creative side and I enjoy finding new ways to do things.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Zoe and I am 16 years old. I go to Ponaganset High School and I do the biomedical sciences pathway as well as health and fitness pathway, and I am an honors student with a 4.1 GPA. I have been teaching dance for a little over two years now so I’m comfortable with children ages 2-7, but I’m willing to help anyone. Prior jobs include working at the Original Italian Bakery in Johnston and I’m currently an assistant dance teacher at J-DAPA, training to become an instructor. I am available after 3 on Wednesdays, Fridays, and all day most weekends until summer where I am free in the daytime on weekdays and unavailable on weekends due to another job. I took a babysitting class through the American Heart Association to get certified for Infant and Pediatric CPR and first aid and I am certified in adult CPR and first aid as well as adult and child AED through my schools. I am comfortable doing light cooking and cleaning when possible.
