A little bit about me

I am very empathetic, patient, and very great with kids. I take initiative well; if they need a snack I will know, if their nails need to be clipped I will do it without being told, if they have a project to be completed I will start without being told. Point is I do no wait on the families to tell me everything I need to do. I do not just stick to the outlined duties based on the discussed compensation. I do these things because I genuinely love kids and always do my job or any task well.I was an English teacher and also have classroom experience. If you are interested you may send me a private message. I am a great cook who for over a year started cooking healthier options. For example instead of flour pancakes I opt for oatmeal high protein pancakes for a healthier choice. Like anything else in life which needs balance I do also prepare junk from time to time as comfort food. If you would like to know more please message me. Thank you!!
