A little bit about me

I’m a college student currently looking for a summer job before I return to school. I’ve been caring for children for as long as I can remember. As the oldest sibling, I’ve often taken on the role of a second mother in my household. In addition to helping raise my younger siblings, I’ve also cared for two toddlers during previous summers.

This summer, I’m seeking a more serious position where I can continue to grow while putting my experience to good use. Over the years, I’ve developed strong skills in patience and multitasking, which both of which are essential when working with children. I’m confident in my ability to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment, and I would love the opportunity to support other families with the same level of care.

I’m a young mother 18 yrs old. I love children so much. Looking for a job I love. I love handling schedules, meal prepping and cleaning.

It’s not needed but I would love if that is available to me.
