A little bit about me

I have always cared for kids, starting with my brother and sister since as long as I could remember. My passion for childcare definitely did not stop with just the knowledge of basic child needs; I developed desire to want to peruse this field! Unfortunately I was forced to be on my own starting at 17 but it was the best thing that could have possibly happen to me! I moved to a small town and was lucky enough to live right next to a self owned daycare. I applied immediately and got a call the next day! I learned baby schedule, and worked with toddlers too. Occasionally I would visit the school aged kids as well! My boss Lexi was so kind enough to pay for a CPR/AID class; I have a certificate to prove it! Because I was only 17 Lexi was waiting to move me up to lead teacher... I was SO close but unfortunately due to covid they couldn't afford to keep me on. This is the career path I would love to continue pursuing, i would love to be given a new opportunity. Thank you.

A little bit about me

I am a playful, relaxed, go with the flow type of guy and I can do full or part-time hours.
Prior to moving to Kansas I have 6 years of prior work as a freelance babysitter in New York. I have high functioning autism and I LOVE children of all ages and backgrounds. I find it naturally very easy to get along with children. I am both a dog and a cat person.
While I do not have a car I ride my motor-bike (I do have the T-lift, which is a city bus private only for those with disabilities and who have passed background checks, and so I do have the ability of safe and reliable transportation if you want me to take the kids somewhere outside the house)
