Jennifer M.     Age 53      Female      Bronx  - 725 Garden Street   Member ID: 10388  Seeking work as a : Housekeeper or House Manager  Position Type: Live-Out, Full Time      Join now for access this candidate's contact details       About Me   I am a mother of four children and one grandchild. My children are now older (23, 22, 21, and 18 + 2 /2/ grandchild). Currently I am enrolled in Mercy College in my senior year pursuing my undergraduate in Psychology. I interact with children all of the time on my current job and have decided to make a career change. I have always been around children all my life and I enjoy them. I have interacted with children from infants to older adolescents. I believe that if you have the patience to deal with children it can be a very pleasurable experience. I believe that it takes a special kind of person who knows how to communicate with a child to get the desired results that you are looking for. Sometimes you have to look at the situation as to why a child might be crying. Are they hungry? How old is the child? Did they take a nap? and so on and so forth. I believe that it is us up to the childcare provider to keep the child on a routined schedule so that he/she will enjoy their day. You also have to be compatable with the child and learn one another as you go along.      Valid Driver's License: No  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: Other  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Other        Work Experience & Education Background   0 years experience, 0 references I have had my own apartment since I was 18 years old.
