A little bit about me

I am a student at Texas State and getting a bachelor's in Theatre. I plan to get a teaching certification and become a Theatre teacher. I have lived in the area since January of 2023 but before I moved here, I used to volunteer at the local community theatre in Killeen, TX. I write poetry and do small crafts in my free time.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have volunteered at the community theatre in Killeen in which we did a production of Elf Jr. where the entire cast were children from the ages of 4-15 years old. I have also babysat around my old neighborhood in Killeen and I have babysat my cousin at different times throughout the years, occasionally a week at a time. My cousin is currently 8 years old and he is on the spectrum so I am able follow the routines and daily regimen needed for him so he is able to enjoy his day to the fullest.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy providing arts and crafts activities to do with children. If I am driving with a little one, I often put on a kid-friendly podcast and I admit I have turned a few kids on to listening to them in their own free time. I enjoy taking kids out to parks and doing activities around the city such as taking them to places like the local library. I also enjoy sitting and entertaining kids at home as well. For entertainment at home I like to pull out a board game or a stack of Uno cards. There are also endless craft activities to do that are enjoyable for everyone such as making oobleck (with lots of supervision of course.) If there is a limit to screen-time, I guarantee I can keep everyone entertained with endless fun.

My experience with special needs children...

I have a cousin on the spectrum and I am able to follow the daily routine that is necessary to help him. I stick to routine that is outlined to me beforehand and follow it to a T. I also have friends who are on the spectrum who have been able to better help me learn for future situations of what might help if any problem were to arise. I try to keep him away from places that might be too over-stimulating for him such as the waterpark, but I do take him to the community pool where there is less commotion and he is able to feel comfortable.

I also have a grandmother with dementia and diabetes and I have experience administrating her insulin and providing general care for her.
