A little bit about me

Hello my name is Tayea(Tay-uh)! I am a very outgoing and energetic person. I grew up in a big family so I have lots of nieces and nephews I’ve taken care of along with also babysitting through middle school and high school. I am a CNA and have been working in Senior Care for 5 years, I also worked at a pediatric long term center taking care of medically complex children. I am working towards being a pediatric nurse but I am currently waiting for a spot to open up in my program so in the meantime I wanted to get some more childcare experience since working with kids is what I love to do! I also worked a home healthcare for the past 3 years doing housekeeping, meal prep, driving to appointments/errands, and other ADL’s. I am a huge animal lover and have a golden retriever myself! I am also a big outdoorsy person and love taking every chance to enjoy good weather and nature. I am a very go with the flow person and willing to work with you!

A little bit about me

Hi my name is Melissa. For the past eight months I've been working as a direct support specialist and a camp counselor at Ramapo for Children in Rhinebeck, NY. But I have decided that I needed a change of pace and direction. Due to my new position as a direct support specialist, I feel as though I haven't had enough time to connect with the kids I work with anymore and the demand of the job and lack of quality has become a burden to me. A plus is that I'm learning Spanish, so the kids can learn with me.
