A little bit about me

I've been watching children practically all my life being the oldest daughter and living with a mom/grandma who had an in-home daycare. I'm a high school student who's currently working on getting her license, but I assure you that I always have a reliable ride. I'm a pretty energetic person and can handle whatever crazy things you children might throw at me (pun intended), also I am an extremely environmentally aware person who can and will tell when somethings up. I also cook meals/prepare snacks, homework help, tidy up any playtime activity/messes, engage in educational activities, and even bedtime readiness. :-)

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Both my mother and grandmother had in-home daycares where I would help watch the children and communicate with parents about the thing we did that day. I also babysat for 2 families in the past 3 years where I was adored by the children and parents alike.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

-Playing dress-up
-Imagination games
-Coloring/painting/arts and crafts
-Board/card games
-Watching tv
-Playing with toys
-Homework

My experience with special needs children...

I have a younger brother who has asperger's syndrome, so trust me I know some things about their wants and needs. I normally make food catered to the things he actually likes to eat, play into his special interests (a big one is sonic the hedgehog which we bond over bc of our shared liking), and help calm him down when he's stimming. I also babysat a little boy whose condition I don't really remeber, but he would get mad or jealous pretty easily but I knew what would get him calm,or I would take him away from whatever was happening to sit and chat with him and try to find an alternative to the problem.
