Activity summary
Member since: Jul 2024
Childcare/Home Care, BA Psycholgy UNC-Chalel Hill, Experience with children 6+, Adults 3+, and my daughter, 9 years old.
I graduated high school with a GPA 4.2, attended UNC-Chapel Hill, graduating with a BA in Psychology. While working towards my degree, I volunteered at my Elementary School, Lynn Road with children who had Down’s, Autism & Cerebral Palsy. After graduation I worked as the Executive Asst. to the Branch President for a printing company and later as a paralegal fill-in for John T Orcutt in Raleigh. Worked as a CNA for 2 elderly sick people. I had my daughter and stayed home with her while my husband worked. Now I’m back on the job hunt as my daughter is mainly with her father until I have an income. Annabelle primarily stays with her father and would be no distraction to my availability.
