I am single and live with my family; parents, younger brother and two dogs. I am currently a college student, recently got accepted into Barry University. I am aspiring to obtain my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education. Teaching is a passion of mine and children are another.

While being there I worked as an Assistant Teacher. My daily routine consisted of welcoming the kids into the classroom and making sure they all use the restroom and have their snacks. Then I would assist them with their lessons and monitor the classroom. I was usually in charge of doing arts and crafts with the kids. After, I would take them to yoga or music class and go setup their lunch in the meantime. During lunch my main objective was to manage each child's food portion and make sure they ate all of their food, as well as encourage good eating habits. In the afternoon I setup the nap area while the kids were in the playground with another assistant. During naptime the Lead Teacher would clock out, leaving me in charge of the kids for the rest of the afternoon. I would typically clean the classroom while the children napped. I made sure the lessons were in order and organized. I cleaned the restroom and dusted shelves. After I woke each child up I would gather their things and give them a small afternoon snack and dismiss them. I also have experience teaching as I am currently working for an enrichment program where I am a 3D animation/robotics instructor. I deal with small to large groups of kids and assist them with their projects. I manage classroom activity and handle situations with kindness.      Childcare experience within the following age groups: 3 - 12 months, 1 - 2 years, 2 - 5 years, 5 - 10 years, over 10 years of age, special needs children   Education/Training: High School, Graduated High School or Equivalent, College      Job Preferences   Seeking work as a : Nanny or Babysitter  Position Type: Live-In or Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time  Work Hours: 30 - 40 hours/week  Position Duration:    As Long as Needed   Childcare Duties:    Cooking      Light Housekeeping      Running errands      Preparing meals      Transporting children      Limited/light housekeeping      Children's baths and dressing      Help with homework      Adhere to special dietary rules (vegetarian, kosher, lactose intolerant, etc.)      Packing Children's lunches      Planning activities for the children     Desired Start Date: June 24, 2015  Desired Salary: $15/Hour  Will work with up to: Three children  Will travel with the family: Yes  Will care  Special Needs Children: Yes  Housekeeping Duties:    Keep a grocery list      Keep the kitchen tidy during work hours      Feed pets during work day as directed      Walk dog and/or pet care      Plant care (indoor)      Grocery shopping regularly as directed      Sweep kitchen floor daily      Mop Kitchen floor weekly, minumum weekly frequency
