Someone to care when you are not there
I love working with children and I look forward to working with yours! I am a student at CSU Fullerton and teach at a NAEYC accredited child care center in Fullerton (since September 2005) as an assistant teacher. When I grow up I want to teach at (and eventually own) a daycare center.
I love caring for children and watching them as they grow and develop, teaching them and allowing them to teach themselves about life and the world they live in.
Mary Poppins is my idol! ;)
I have many years of experience with all ages as the eldest of four and the chosen sitter for many of my younger cousins. Newborn to three years old are my favorite and specialty (I work primarily with infants and toddlers at my job) but I am experienced with all ages up to 16 years old.
I love playing and I am a firm believer that the best learning happens through play. When I am caring for children we dance, cook (depending on age and ability), read, paint or color, sing, and do lots of talking-regardless of age!!! I believe effective, repectful communication is needed when dealing with people of all ages, but especially children. It is important to me that a child have high self-esteem and I do what I can to foster an environment that promotes it whenever I care for children.
My friends lovingly call me Cinderella because I like to clean... it helps me relax. Especially dishwashing and sweeping. :) I don't mind helping out a bit around your house with cleaning if needed. I can also help with homework up to and including high school level. I am talented in english and while math, science and history are not my favorites I still did well. :)
I am open to all types of work, whether it be a regular 4+ hour shift, an occasional "Mommy and/or Daddy need(s) a couple hours alone", or a last minute "Oh my goodness! Please come save us!!!" emergency job. My phone is always on! I am available to work in both Orange County and San Bernardino County. Hope to hear from you soon!
