I have babysat children since I was 10 years old (I passed the American Red Cross Babysitting course). I have worked in daycares and in homes, and I worked in a preschool as a paraprofessional for kids between the ages of 3 and 5 with special needs ranging from ASD to cerebral palsy. I have changed countless diapers, worked on potty-training with several kids, assisted with g-tube feedings and oral feedings, assisted in caring for a removed tube and a child having a seizure, and I have taught students with special needs for almost a year. I love doing projects and cleaning and making sure the kids are happy and healthy and safe. I'm also great with dogs! I am a very fast learner. I graduated with my degree in early childhood special education as well!
