A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Kerry. I've been taking care of children since I was 12. That's 15 years! First I helped out at an after school care facility, then graduated up to older and older kids and all different types of kids as I got older. I have a lot of skills that are handy both on and off the job. I love art and have a degree in Book Arts from OCAC. One of my favorite things to do with kids is teach them to make a book from one sheet of paper. I also speak poor french :)

I have cared for differently abled and able bodied individuals. Ranging from a teenager with Spina Bifida, to tiny babies! In special needs care I have experience with catheterization, G-tubes, and much more. I also love to play and read books with children. I think it's important to be actively engaged with children and to really pay attention to them. I believe in RIE philosophy and that listening to children is incredibly important.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Pedro Rivera and I am 20 years old. I’d say that I’m good at taking care of kids. I’ve watched over my younger siblings for several years now with my dad working and my mom getting older. Im trying to earn and save some cash so that I can give school another shot. I’ve always wanted to be a teacher at an elementary school to help kids learn and grow more. And well I am sure hoping that this is a good place to start. I’ve also always had a passion for sports. I believe that staying active truly makes life more wonderful.
I want to make sure you’re getting the help you’re looking for. Please reach out if you’re interested or if you have questions! :)
