Hello! My name is Afreen, I have a Bachelors in Health Science and a Masters in Integrative Physiology. Currently, I am studying to take the Optometry Admission Test. My first experience working with kids, was when I volunteered at a DV shelter for around 4 years. At the shelter, I was certified to teach children the signs and cycle of DV, as well as methods to keep themselves safe. I accomplished this through group discussion, art, and writing. I also served snacks and dinner to the children. I mainly worked with children aged 5-12, but I would also provide babysitting services to the infants and toddlers. During the summer months, I also volunteered as a camp counselor. Currently, I've been working at a daycare for over a year. I take care of children aged 5 months to 12 years. There are usually 8 or more kids at a time. I genuinely enjoy my job, and have been told by managers and quite a few parents that I go above and beyond at how I care for the kids.

Afreen cared for our two year old daughter for three consecutive days and we could not have been more pleased! Afreen was very courteous and followed all schedules exactly as requested. Afreen was also highly proactive and responsible, offering a call the day prior to watching our daughter the first time to discuss any particular care needs and then promptly arrived each day. Afreen is wonderful with managing children, and she and my toddler got along so well. I highly recommend Afreen and would be happy to have her care for our daughter again.
