I grew up in Greenwich Village as a young African American kid, I was privileged to grow up in such a diverse community, I have always been told that I am very friendly and we'll mannered in today's society. I went to Washington Irving High School where I graduated with good grades in the Gramercy area. Like my Grandfather, Father, Uncle, and Aunts, I decided to give it a try and we'll for over 10 years I have been working as a porter, assistant to the Residential Superintendent, a Superintendent of small brownstones Apts. I enjoy playing Minecraft on my free time, I love people who are positive and helpful, I dislike negative people, crowded streets or subways, I love bicycling in the city, it's such a rewarding travel and helps me relive any tensions in my life. I am a very great communicator, advisor, team player and occasionally a team leader if needed, I love to keep kids happy and safe, I often find myself acting very much like a parent to my niece and nephews who range in age 2-17 years old, I will say younger kids are much easier to figure out then teenagers, however each kid deserves a trustworthy individual and each parents need to have trust, so I value this more then money itself, however I do need to live and money pays the bills.

I would watch over the children, provided food for them their parent prepared and packed for the child to eat. I Excell well with kids in play activities, however I aim always thinking safety and paying attention to the children to minimize accidents and prevent unwanted injuries. I stressed that each kid feel confident in telling me or their parents of inappropriate touching or play that should be avoided. All toys are cleaned to reduce germs and even worse the common colds. Allowing the kids to play, rest, and interact with them by participating in games that promotes learning, sharing, and caring.
