I’m a first-year pre-med student with a passion for working with children and animals. I am CPR certified and have completed a year-long child development course, during which I gained hands-on experience working with 12 children ages 3-5. I also have experience babysitting younger children ages 1–2 for family members, and have worked as a camp counselor for middle school students.
In addition to childcare, I have experience walking and caring for small to medium-sized dogs, as well as caring for both house cats and stray cats.
I’m patient, attentive, and understanding, especially when working with shy children or nervous animals. I believe in taking the time to build trust and create a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for everyone in my care.
