A little bit about me

I am currently 17 years old and will be starting my senior year this August. I have previously worked at a daycare and have worked as a babysitter for multiple families. I have a catering job where I work occasionally on the weekends. I am in many activities during the fall so my free time is very little, but throughout the rest of the year I am free much more. Especially in the summer.

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Autumn Binkowski, a high school senior enrolled in college courses this year. As the eldest of six children, I have significant experience caring for young kids, having been babysitting for about 4-5 years. My hobbies include art and music—I've loved music my whole life and enjoy singing and dancing with children because it spreads happiness and smiles. I also enjoy reading, using games to teach, and having conversations with kids. Working with children brings me joy, especially when I see them learn something new. My empathy helps me understand their needs and feelings—I'm attentive to their emotional well-being and offer support when necessary. My energy, kindness, and honesty make me a dependable caregiver. I prioritize children's safety and well-being; I am CPR-certified, hold a CNA license, and am trained in first aid. My experience as the oldest of six children, combined with my certifications and training, makes me a strong, caring, and dependable caregiver.
