A little bit about me
Hello my name Veronica, I have taken a child development class in the past.
My current updated list of skills involve over 10 years of babysitting and 3 years of studying for nursing when COVID was brought into America [phone number hidden]).
In the past I have also volunteered at monument hospital in rapid city in the pediatric department (2016). I am very familiar with caring for all ages under any kind of circumstances, with our without learning developmental delays. I am willing to negotiate price as well, thank you for your consideration.
I will hopefully be getting my CPR updated this next year (2026)
