A little bit about me

Hi! A little bit about my background - I am a 27-year-old local to Boston, and I love arts and crafts and being outside. Growing up in a tight-knit neighborhood I was constantly surrounded by younger kids and did a fair amount of babysitting prior to graduating from college for a range of ages. As part of my B. A. in psychology, I took several relevant courses on childhood development and led a successful philosophy club after school at the local boys and girls club.

I am currently pursuing a graphic design certificate after 5+ years of an administrative office job. With my new flexible schedule, I remembered the fulfillment and fun I had when babysitting. Additionally, as my friends began to have kids of their own I am reminded of my appreciation for the joy, and excitement for life children bring. I look forward to this new chapter and hope to be a help to you and your family!

A little bit about me

I have attended Urban College of Boston as well as Fisher college. Being able to attend college gave me much more knowledge on working with children. 
  Back in 2013 I worked as a teacher assistant for Ana’s Little Angels. My responsibilities were to assist the lead teacher with activities, lunch, and classwork. Being able to work at this learning center pushed me more to not only want to learn more about children, it also has made me stronger as a parent. 
  The teachers along with the directors that I have worked with see the potential in me. The motivation and drive that I have allows me to want to learn more and more.
  I would highly appreciate the opportunity to meet with you and talk about the position being offered. I have references that can be contacted to provide you with more information about my capabilities in this field.
