I have worked closely with approximately 15 families and done more casual babysitting for many more. I have worked with multiples, watched up to 8 children by myself, and as much as a group of 35 kids (with 3 other babysitters). I am very familiar working with both male and female children from 1 month up to about 14 years. I have fed with pumped breast milk and formula, changed cloth and disposable diapers, worked with kids with countless allergies and special diets, helped with potty training, assisted families in countless different parenting techniques--you name it, I have probably encountered it. I hold a Bachelors in Psychology from Loyola University New Orleans, and I am currently working on my Master's in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology at Naropa University. In addition to my extensive childcare experience, I have also held jobs in home organization, which I would gladly provide references for. Also, I completed a therapeutic practicum experience at Care Link day program. There, I provided therapeutic presence, daily chair exercise, enrichment activities, and companionship for the elderly participants, most of whom were diagnosed with varying degrees of dementia. I do not have medical training, but am experienced in caregiving for the elderly otherwise.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Willing to obtain  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Spiritual - Not Religious        Work Experience & Education Background   0 years experience, 1 references My experience is a 100 hour practicum this past Spring at Care Link day program, located inside Frasier Meadows.      Skills:    Ambulation Assistance      Dressing Grooming assistance      Range of Motion Exercise     Experience and skills with following Diagnosis :    Alzheimer's      Arthritis      Congestive Heart Failure      Dementia      Hearing Impairment      Hospice      Parkinson's      Visual Impairment   Education/Training: Caregiver / Companion, College, Bachelor's Degree      Job Preferences   Seeking work as a : Caregiver / Companion  Position Type: Live-In or Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time  Work Hours: 20 - 30 hours/week  Position Duration:    Less than 3 months      3 - 12 months      As Long as Needed      Occasional/As Needed   Prefer to work in:    Home Health Care      Retirement Homes     Desired Start Date: August 01, 2013  Desired Salary: $15/Hour  Willing to travel : Yes  Duties:    Housekeeping      Laundry      Grocery Shopping      Meal Planning / Preparation      Supervise Home      Errands      Clean Bathroom      Assist with Pet Care      Assist with Walking      Vacuuming      Hand Wash Dishes      Escort to Appointments      Plan Visits, Outings, & Trips to Visit Neighbours, Friends, Family         References   Chris Barnett  This is the employer for the mother's helper job I referenced in my profile.      Mary Anne Zacek  I have done home organization, personal assisting, childcare, and traveling nannying for this family.
